On today’s show, we get an update on the staffing situation at the Tantramar Primary Care Clinic in Sackville from Horizon CEO Margaret Melanson. With one full time nurse practitioner and two part time family doctors, the clinic is still short of its goal of three full time primary care providors, and a team of allied health professionals.

Plus we look at the agenda for tonight’s Tantramar council meeting, including spending on fire departments, extended contracts at the Sackville Visitor Information Centre, and a bylaw change to make it easier to build small homes in Sackville.
