Healthcare Policy

As Las Vegas mayor, Dock Walls will prioritize effective and affordable healthcare for our seniors as well as for all other residents. Our platform encompasses several key points aimed at achieving this goal:

Accessibility: Ensuring that healthcare services are easily accessible to seniors and all residents, regardless of their socio-economic status or geographical location within Las Vegas. This may involve increasing the number of healthcare facilities, particularly in underserved areas.

Affordability: Implementing policies to reduce the financial burden of healthcare on residents, especially seniors who may be on fixed incomes. This could include advocating for lower healthcare costs, expanding insurance coverage options, and providing subsidies or assistance programs for those in need.

Quality of Care: Focusing on improving the quality of healthcare services available to seniors and residents by investing in healthcare infrastructure, promoting evidence-based practices, and enhancing training for healthcare professionals.

Preventive Care: Emphasizing the importance of preventive healthcare measures to reduce the incidence of chronic diseases and improve overall well-being. This may involve initiatives such as community health education programs, screenings, and vaccination campaigns.

Collaboration: Working with healthcare providers, community organizations, and other stakeholders to develop comprehensive healthcare strategies that address the diverse needs of Las Vegas residents, including seniors.

Technology and Innovation: Exploring innovative solutions and leveraging technology to enhance healthcare delivery, improve patient outcomes, and streamline administrative processes, ultimately making healthcare more efficient and cost-effective.

Advocacy: Serving as an advocate for seniors and residents in matters related to healthcare policy, including lobbying for state and federal funding, supporting legislation that benefits the healthcare system, and addressing healthcare disparities within the community.

By focusing on these key areas, Dock Walls aims to create a healthcare system in Las Vegas that is not only effective and affordable but also equitable and inclusive, meeting the needs of all residents, particularly seniors.
