And apart from finding the funding to finish the San Pedro hospital, we also asked Bernard how they will find the human resources to staff the hospital as well. He assured us that a plan is already well underway.

"We at the ministry have already started the planning and the training so that we could have the people there that is where our priority is to ensure that the Human Resources are there whenever that hospital comes into commission."

"Do you think you have enough Human Resources to staff that hospital? That's a big hospital"

Kevin Bernard - Minister of Health & Wellness
"We already identified, and are already in the process of doing all the training in fact if you notice we have a couple people coming back that are on study leave that will fill in back the gaps that we have but the ministry has already identified where we are going to fill those gaps. As I said our priority is to ensure that whenever this hospital comes into commission we will have a work force and the hospital will be very much efficient and functioning whenever that happens."
