Thunder Bay Regional Hospital, Ontario, Canada.

Two acute care hospitals in Thunder Bay recently amalgamated into a single hospital. Acute care delivery in the region promises to be more efficient and less expensive, and the process has resulted in a hospital better able to absorb the 18 percent provincial funding cut announced last fall. This is an important step in developing a truly efficient and effective continuum of care in Thunder Bay, and an example of successfully meeting the challenges of delivering quality service on a tighter budget.
桑德贝的两家急症护理医院最近合并成了一家医院。该地区的急症护理服务有望提高效率并降低成本，而且这一过程使医院更有能力承受去年秋天宣布的18%的省级资金削减。这是在桑德贝发展真正高效且有效的连续护理服务的重要一步，也是在预算更紧张的情况下成功应对提供优质服务挑战的一个范例。
