Imagine your husband passing away in your arms while you wait for more than a half hour for an ambulance to arrive. And the most bitter pill was that this wasn't in some remote area of rural Nova Scotia. This was at a building on Joseph Howe Drive, just minutes away from the QEII hospital. There was no ambulance available that morning. That was the incident that propelled Anne MacPhee into advocacy. She's been speaking out about her experience and the loss of her husband Kelly in 2020. And each time she speaks up, more people step forward with their stories. She says that's been a big part in her healing as she moves through the grieving process. This week, she wanted to talk about the announcement of the direct to triage policy. If a patient is low risk, paramedics will be able to leave them in the emergency waiting room to be assessed by health care staff. That will allow them to get back on the road to help the next patients in need. Anne says she wants to give credit where credit is due now that changes are being made to help others who may be in a similar situation as she experienced.
