Pre-hospital care helps in directing patients to appropriate health centers where their condition can be managed. Pre-hospital care can give stabilizing measures that reduces mortality and morbidity in patients. In the documentary by Kara David, we saw firsthand how pre-hospital care dictates access to healthcare in far-flung areas. There we saw how social determinants of health contribute to pre-hospital care - public infrastructure, such as roads, dictate access to healthcare. It is simply not enough to build hospitals in each province but to ensure that necessary components of the healthcare system are able to connect the patient to the appropriate care.
