Mobile MRI unit in Northern Manitoba facing staffing challenges

A mobile MRI unit launched by the Manitoba government to serve The Pas and Thompson is currently inactive in Thompson, facing a staffing crisis with a 60% vacancy rate. Patients in The Pas are relying on distant facilities for scans, as the mobile unit has not yet operated there. Staffing challenges stem from pay discrepancies and uncertainty about work locations, although the mobile unit has reduced MRI wait times significantly compared to other facilities.
