I had a great time at #ICPH2022 this past week making connections and learning about the future directions of wellness in healthcare! Thank you @CMA_Docs for providing this opportunity!

It took more than a year, but this month the PEI government rolled out a program that will cover most of the cost of glucose monitoring devices for Islanders with diabetes. #PEI is the first in the Atlantic province to provide the coverage. #peipoli

Building medical school about more than classrooms, cautions Health P.E.I. CEO https://t.co/zOgHEFLxjo #pei

Despite the uncertainties, this decision has huge implications for the future of PEI healthcare. I’m very excited to see this unfold & hope PEI can tackle the short term healthcare demands while working towards a secure healthcare system in the future. (3/3)

[Aaron Rainnie @AaronRainnie]

An exciting announcement, but a lot of changes need to be made in order to properly support & educate 20 medical students on PEI, especially with the physician workforce running thin while many islanders still need family physicians. (1/3)

While this plan will hopefully create a long term solution, it does not address the immediate need for physicians & creates many questions, including whether there are plans to increase Residency seats on PEI for the increased number of medical graduates. (2/3)

[Aaron Rainnie @AaronRainnie]

Congrats to @UPEI and @MUNMed! Looking forward to hearing more details on this new Faculty of Medicine

[Jessica Doria-Brown @JDoriaBrownCBC]

BREAKING: @UPEI announces the creation of a Faculty of Medicine, in partnership with @MemorialU for what will be called a “co-degree”Officials describe this as a ‘historic day’ and a ‘monumental step that will impact health care across PEI ‘

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

Today, let’s do more than just wear an Orange Shirt.

Today, let’s reflect on residential schools. On Canada’s blood stained colonial past. On this country’s role in genocide.

Let’s challenge the oppressive systems we work within.

Let’s truly commit to #TruthAndReconciliation.

[Trevor Jain @TrevorJain]

Fun fact. Did you know hospitals in Canada are not where legislation is passed or debated?I know right. Surprising.We have government buildings in your Provincial Capitals where our elected officials do business. If/when considered protesting start there and get out of the way.
