Suicides - Real change needed in Labrador mental health system

The people in Labrador City and Wabush deserve a REAL change. This is yet another example of a system that is not designed to meet the needs of the clients and the public it is intended to serve. It is a pathology-oriented system that is designed to wait for people to be ill. Even when people become ill enough to qualify for services, the system is unable to respond. People suffer long wait times and extremely strong stigma. Government of Newfoundland and Labrador, please do ...not jump to the traditional and over-simplistic conclusion that the answer is just more resources. MORE of the SAME will not make anything DIFFERENT! The system needs to be redesigned to be client-centered. We know how to do that. This book is a guide www.leader-development.ca/buy to true transformation! Government of Newfoundland and Labrador, please take this opportunity to change the lives of the people of Newfoundland and Labrador, and prevent these kinds of tragedies that Lab City has suffered way to many of over the past year.
