To our colleagues in nursing, as you continue to face the frontlines of the pandemic, we wanted to share our appreciation for the work you do. Thank you! #NationalNursingWeek

[Canadian Society of Respiratory Therapists @CSRT_tweets]

This is something that needs to be repeated & shared to remind the world that #respiratorytherapists have been on the frontlines since day 1 of the pandemic. Respiratory therapists, YOU are healthcare heroes. Pass this on and share the message.#healthcareheroes #CSRT

Introducing the new CSRT bilingual Mental Health Hub! The mental health and well-being of many RTs have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. To help support respiratory therapists through this challenging time, the CSRT has launched this new resource.

@KhalidMateen4 @ivanculum I would concur! Thanks Ivan for a great re-entry back to the academic world and for introducing me to the world of Twitter. #MHST601

@ivanculum A6: Wearable technology beyond smart watches. I feel there are so many applications. #MHST601 #FutureHealth

[Heather Mughal @HeatherMughal]

@ivanculum A5:Yes. Since starting my career I have noticed a shift to patient centred care. Care is provided based on the wishes of the patient and families and not solely from the healthcare professionals’ directives. Collaboration is integral. #MHST601 #FutureHealth

[Heather Mughal @HeatherMughal]

@vancasterenlisa @ivanculum I agree that the medication ads, with the never ending list of risks, are problematic. Over the years I have had many patients refuse to take medications because of ads on TV or magazines. #MHST601 #FutureHealth

[Heather Mughal @HeatherMughal]

@ivanculum A4: No I do not feel consumerism should play a role within the healthcare system or at least not a major role like it does in dentistry. There is potential for an erosion of trust between patients and providers. #MHST601 #FutureHealth

@ivanculum A3: Cognition concerns and senior clients being able to effectively use technology in order to support virtual health, is a barrier to implementing this trend in my discipline. #FutureHealth #MHST601

[Heather Mughal @HeatherMughal]

@ivanculum A2: An electronic clinical information system that houses all Albertan’s information and that all stakeholders can access. A system is currently being rolled out,but unclear at this point whether contracted continuing care service providers will be included. #MHST601

[Heather Mughal @HeatherMughal]

@ivanculum A1: The most recent trend I have noticed in my current role is the utilization and development of virtual resources for education to support facility staff and residents. #MHST601

A new tool to help determine how safe it is to visit friends and family. Might help safely ease some of the isolation seniors are experiencing. #MHST601 #vulnerablegroups. https://t.co/9YwTYkSar7
