The Northwest Local Health Integration Network still has not signed off on ten temporary new beds at the Pinecrest Home for the Aged.Administration at the long term care home has been working with the LHIN's for months trying to get funding to open the beds, but CAO, Kevin Queen says they have nothing in writing yet.
He's hoping there will get approval to open the beds by the end of the month.
Pinecrest has been waiting since the beginning of the year for the extra long term care beds to help ease a critical shortage in the community.
