Description
Broken Care: Twenty Years of Healthcare Failure in New Brunswick
By Peter Phillips
For over two decades, New Brunswick's healthcare system has been quietly collapsing—underfunded, understaffed, and overwhelmed.
Broken Care takes a hard, clear-eyed look at how political decisions, bureaucratic delays, and chronic neglect have led to a province where emergency rooms close overnight, thousands go without a family doctor, and lives are lost in waiting rooms. From the 2000s to the present day, this book follows the key decisions and inaction that turned strain into crisis.
Written for patients, healthcare workers, and concerned citizens alike, this short but powerful exposé provides a timeline of failure—paired with a call for collective action. If you believe New Brunswickers deserve better, Broken Care is your starting point for understanding how we got here—and where we must go next.
