Title
Communication and Efficiency : Language and Health Care Brief Presented to the Clair Commission
Abstract
Alliance Quebec welcomes the opportunity to present the concerns of the English-speaking community during the public consultations on the reorganization of health care. As we all know, communication is fundamental to proper diagnosis and treatment of the patient. It also plays a vital role in ensuring a patient is comfortable with his or her health care professional. Alliance Quebec is of the opinion that no matter how fine and efficient a health care system is, it will be less effective if it cannot communicate effectively with the patient and vice versa.
