Happy #NationalNursingWeek! We're so grateful for the 2000 highly dedicated, compassionate & knowledgeable #nurses who step up to do what’s best for our patients, families & each other every day. We’re not only appreciative, we’re immensely proud of our #myKHSC #nursing teams!
Happy #InternationalDayOfTheMidwife! A special thank you to @MidwivesCMK. Last year we teamed up to open the Well Newborn and Parent Clinic, and #midwives like Lindsay MacDougall provided high-quality and timely care to 895 babies. More: bit.ly/3pckuLj #IMD2023 #ygk
Tomorrow April 4 is #EqualPayDay2023! #OntarioMidwives join @EqualPayON in calling on government to close the gender pay gap and protect publicly funded services. Lend your voice to the call at equalpaycoalition.org/mobilize-your-… #EqualPayDay #CloseThePayGap #PrivatizationHurtsWomen
Midwife clients need @SylviaJonesMPP to update the rules to enable midwives to test & treat conditions already in their scope. Updates would allow clients to access needed meds & vaccinations at visits with their #midwives, avoiding unnecessary trips to already overburdened MDs.
The current restrictions placed on midwives are outdated, costly, an inconvenience to pregnant people, and cause unnecessary strain to a health system in crisis. Government must enable midwives with broad prescribing authority allowing for the best and most responsive treatment.
"Midwives are primary care providers with the ability to diagnose and prescribe for pregnancy and postpartum, but current ministry rules hamper our ability to do our jobs[,] cause extra expense for taxpayers and extra hassles for pregnant people." AOM President @JasminTecson, RM
@TPSkinders Elwin’s in his house colour even though he isn’t at school!
We owe the folks @KingstonHSC a lot of thanks for opening the doors like this. It is the sort of transparency that really helps the rest of us to relate to what is happening there in the name of caring for people. It is a LOT.
From treating patients in hallways to closing a section of the emergency department, CBC chief correspondent Adrienne Arsenault witnesses the tough choices this hospital makes daily due to staff shortages. youtu.be/76hcfwjyHgI

Yas!!!!! 🙌🏽. Thanks to @ONThealth for updating PCR testing eligibility to include pregnancy as an acknowledged immune-compromised state and high risk for COVID infection.
Before the emergence of omicron, the CDC reported that someone could be infected within 15 minutes. Here’s a table showing infection times for people wearing face coverings pre-omicron. The CDC expects the new variant to spread more easily. Read more: sfchronicle.com/health/article…
We understand that #Covid enters through our respiratory system. However it wrecks havoc on our vasculature- blood vessels. It causes harm in the most vascular organs- the brain, kidneys, lungs and blood vessels themselves. Yet many seem to forget the most vascular organ...1/2
2/2 ->and that is the #placenta. This means #pregnant people need to be top of mind for every #Covid decision on access to testing, vaccination, monitoring, protective equipment & care. @DrKateJMiller @GowerMD @FionaMattatall @DrAmandaSelk all get this. @PCMCH_ON @BORNOntario
I'm devastated by the confirmed #COVID19 death of a Toronto child under 4. Don't make this small. Don't look for reasons it happened to them. That child is gone and that family's world has fallen apart, and COVID-19 is why. Take every step you can to prevent stories like this.
Following all recommended public health measures provides a multi-layered protection against COVID-19 and our best chance at preventing the spread of the Omicron variant.
@KFLAPH @IanArthurMPP I keep reading Piotr Oglaza saying that most new COVID cases are due to small social gatherings. The kflph COVID dashboard online says 84% of cases are ‘info pending’ and only 10% close contact. Where can I find the data Dr. Oglaza keeps referring to?

Today, I’ll be watching @Fordnation challenge the rights of @OntarioMidwives to equal pay for our work. The courts have already ruled (twice!) #midwives shouldn't be underpaid & undervalued because our work is associated with women. #StopFightingMidwivesInCourt! #payequity
