Our January 2026 Monthly Update marks a pivotal moment for Med Response BC, highlighting why advocacy, courage, and evidence-informed system design matter more than ever. In this edition, MRBC CEO Dr. Mike Christian reflects on the importance of “taking down the sign” that says everything is fine—and instead confronting the real gaps in prehospital and retrieval care affecting patients across British Columbia.
The newsletter previews the upcoming 2026 Prehospital & Retrieval Medicine (PHRM) Conference, where clinicians, system leaders, and patient advocates will gather to address performance, equity, and accountability in transport medicine. It also features lessons from Retrieval Services Queensland, a leading international model for coordinated, transparent retrieval systems, and announces the appointment of Dr. Andrew Fagan as MRBC’s new Medical Director – Education.
Together, these stories underscore MRBC’s commitment to truth, collaboration, and meaningful system change—because patients cannot wait. Read the full update here: https://us2.campaign-archive.com/?u=015635ee366ee6aabc2188f47&id=250b6023b0
