@thanh_neville Know that showing emotion is an important part of teaching. Showing those students that it is ok to feel, and express emotion is an under appreciated skill. Healthcare providers are people. We see difficult things. Be proud of yourself for reminding them of that ❤

Replacing nurses with unlicensed staff is on the horizon.
‘There aren’t enough nurses’
Ontario’s answer: well, how hard is it to be a nurse anyway

@DebraLefebvre @SylviaJonesMPP Nurses are quitting their jobs, signing up with agencies and going back to work on the exact same units for two or three times the wage.

Asking for safe patient ratios, more nurses working, retention of current staff are not “Big Asks” they are necessary job requirements. We need to stop asking and start demanding. And if our demands aren’t met—we need stronger job action. #NurseTwitter

@DebraLefebvre It is literally impossible. That would mean 30 minutes per patient in a 12 hour shift...and the means the nurse doesn't eat, drink or use the bathroom.

@fordnation and @SylviaJonesMPP have decided to take an ignore and see approach with Ontario's healthcare system. When something is broken it doesn't repair properly by ignoring the problem. Consequences of the lack of leadership and action by this government will be long lasting

@JanetRo50695143 @SylviaJonesMPP @oarinfo @fordnation 84 hours...lights on, constant noise, no shower, no privacy, on a hard stretcher mattress, obviously hasn't had her clothes changed...for 84 hours

I just can't anymore. Seriously. This is just f*cking insane.

Hey @fordnation, anything to say? My money is on....NO.

Pilot has decided that our plane isn’t safe to fly and we are all getting off.

➡️No one is arguing with the pilot.

#BREAKING - An Ontario court has struck down a bill that limited wages for public sector workers. The Ford governments bill 124 capped public sector wage increases to 1% per year. The court decision opens the door for unions to take the government to court for backpay.
