| "Yes, there are clinics in the community. Some of them have everything and some of them have nothing. So we have to bring our own stuff like pap lights and blood pressure cuffs." (Interview 1) |
| "No, we don't have ECGs, there's no testing done here. We're more of a health centre than a medical centre. The only professionals that are here are the nurses and the nurse practitioner." (Interview 5) |
| "I'm waiting for an answer to see when we're going to get our new health care facility. This one is very small. We're overcrowded. We don't have a lot of places to put storage. We don't have anywhere to put medical files." (Interview 5) |
| "Some communities have nursing stations that have home care services or have medical drivers that can get people to town. But ... if a student doesn't realize that someone might not be able to get to town because it's over an hour away and it's $100 ... that's going to have an impact on [the patient's] health."

| "It's 110 km north of Kenora, so it takes just over an hour to drive. Sometimes the road's out, which always makes it exciting. ... It's a regular road but several areas along the road they have washouts because of water, and culverts are not maintained. ... And often they have to close it for repairs, so you can travel through it. They only open it up to let people through for 1 hour a day, so it really limits the travel to the community.
