While NPs do not replace MDs, we could absolutely be better utilized as primary care providers: One in six family doctors are near retirement age, leaving millions of Canadians in health care limbo /via @globeandmail theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

Ontario has the lowest nurse to patient ratio per capita in Canada with 1:8 on medical units and 1:3 in the ICU. This is not putting patients first! #ItsTimeToInvestInNursing @RNAO @fordnation pressprogress.ca/doug-ford-onta…

The Government of Ontario must increase the number of Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinics (NPLCs) to ensure all Ontarians have access to primary care. The establishment of more NPLCs in Ontario should be a priority! #NPLC #NPLCA #NPAO #NPled #NursePractitioner #Ontario #OnPoli

I know it's impolite to use all caps so I apologize in advance for this. NURSE PRACTITIONERS CAN SEE THESE PATIENTS. Ok, back to my indoor voice now @NPAOntario @NPLCA1 @SylviaJonesMPP @ONThealth @CityNewsTO @picardonhealth @OntariosDoctors toronto.citynews.ca/2022/12/07/ont…

Everyone needs to listen to this awful account of a 2 year old infant who drew its last breath on the floor of the ER at Lakeridge. As told by a nurse who is angry and traumatized. Who wouldn't be? Those poor parents.

This is heartbreaking 💔 😢 I have nothing but a sick stomach hearing that a 2 year old died on a hospital floor today. 😢 vm.tiktok.com/ZMFqp5V5F/

GOOD NEWS: The Hamilton-Wentworth District School board passed a motion yesterday to implement a temporary masking requirement in all schools. Thank you for following the science. For caring about the children's healthcare crisis. And for putting the safety of kids first! 🙏🏾😷

It’s the worst I have seen in my 14 years on staff. The extent of illness is severe. Multiple viral infections, often in the same child. Superimposed secondary bacterial infections with catastrophic implications and incredible morbidity. Please wear a damn mask!

⚡ The crisis at Hamilton’s children’s hospital is getting worse with a surge of viral illness leading to record overcrowding. Occupancy is over 140 per cent at @mch_childrens — up from 135 per cent last week, @jfrketich reports #HamOnt 👉 torstar.co/NZez50LzpRT

Just a brief note to say "thank you" for all the positive messages about this very negative story

Pediatric ICU at > 127% capacity. >50% of kids ventilated. Surgeries cancelled. Community partners at maximum capacity and being supported virtually as no space at Sick Kids.

SickKids is reducing surgeries to preserve critical care capacity. Please see our full statement on updates to our clinical operations: sickkids.ca/en/news/archiv…

An amazing event and a huge step forward. Paul Paletta and his foundation have made a transformative $5M pledge toward the development of a children’s hospice for Hamilton and the surrounding region. Public fundraising campaign launching soon! bit.ly/3QzoTAN

During the height of the pandemic MDs working overnight in ICUs (in physician or nursing support roles) were paid $450/h. As per ONA contract, the hourly night shift premium for an RN is $2.88. How can RNs feel valued when disparities like this exist?
