@NightShiftMD Thanks Brian!

Destiny of #Nurses intertwined to that of #Physicians. #Teamwork vital to monitor progress, intervene to restore health, or aid to peaceful passing

Patients come to hospitals 4 procedures. They stay for 24x7 Nursing care

@CPanopoulosRowe Fantastic recognition for a fantastic team. Well deserved!

[KingstonHSC @KingstonHSC]

They are the light on every unit: Today we recognize the empathy, patience and excellent care that #myKHSC Personal Care Assistants offer patients every day of the year. Happy #PSWday2021 to you all! #ygk #onhealth

@MRogersRN Interested in learning more. Nurse ratios very difficult to quantify

#NationalNursingWeek Ann Baillie first came to the @KingstonHSC School of Nursing as a student in 1907, and graduated in 1910. Until World War I, she worked at Kingston General Hospital, and in 1915 joined the Canadian Overseas Expeditionary Force. #WeAnswerTheCall @canadanurses

[KingstonHSC @KingstonHSC]

Across #myKHSC, nurses have stepped up to answer the call in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic in many ways – from working on teams outside of their usual practice to help areas that have been hit hard, or showing extra compassion to patients separated from their families.

[Dr. Renate Ilse 🇨🇦 @IlseZorn]

A big Thank You! to all of my nursing colleagues here at @KingstonHSC on #NursesWeek2021. You've really stepped up.👏

@rvanwylick That’s where I left it. I wondered where it was!

[Richard van Wylick @rvanwylick]

Here is my PSA: if it comes to mind that you should take your child to the hospital to be checked, then just do it. All too often, we have been guilty of giving the message, subtly and not-so-subtly, of "unnecessary" visits to healthcare. If you are worried, please come.

[Leanne Wakelin @WakelinLeanne]

@_ChrisGarnett Wow, she is a mini- you!

[Nathan Stall @NathanStall]

Times are tough right now and it's very easy to be overwhelmed by negativity—I am definitely guilty of this myself.

If you'd like a momentary reprieve, enjoy this adorable and tear-jerking reunion between a husband and wife separated for months because of pandemic restrictions.
