Shadow Health Minister Paul Dinn says access to long-term supports for mental health and addictions must be a priority for our government.
Opposition Shadow Health Minister Paul Dinn says the scourge of addiction needs a multi-faceted approach to protect our population and prevent drug overdose deaths. Dinn says access to long-term supports for mental health and addictions must be a priority for our government. He says far too often we hear stories of people being denied care, or being placed on waitlists for psychiatrists or psychologists that are years long. Care delayed is care denied. Dinn says long-term access to mental healthcare and support for those seeking treatment for their addictions must be central to government’s approach in pushing back against the opioid crisis. Help has to be there when someone asks for it.
