Whereas none of the new or existing level 3 trauma hospital construction plan in rural British Columbia include plans or designs for onsite helipads; And whereas due to an absence of onsite hospital helipads, rural BC trauma patients experience delayed access to level 3 trauma hospitals: Therefore be it resolved that UBCM lobby the Province of BC to legislate that all current and future level 3 and above trauma hospitals being constructed in rural BC receive capital funding to construct and operate an onsite helipad.
