My experience is mostly with the RHAs in NB. Believe me, things are way more bureaucratic than they used to be.
I used to be the chief of my department back when the Moncton Hospital was an independent facility. If I had a problem, all I had to do was wander down the hallway to talk to the VP responsible for my department, and he would say "let me see what I can do about that". He was invariably very helpful.
Now the Moncton Hospital is a cog in a provincewide RHA, and there are quite literally four different levels of management that have to be navigated before a request reaches anyone with any decision making power. The people who make the decisions are so far removed from the problems that they have very little idea about the consequences of their decisions and are shielded from any meaningful feedback. It's a horrible and demoralizing situation.
