@CaregiverON This has most certainly been one of the highlights of my career. Check out OCO’s undercover kindness project. A small act of kindness can make such a difference to a #caregiver #RandomActsofKindnessDay

Having an employer that understands the challenges of balancing work and caregiving makes a significant difference to my quality of life. So proud to work for the Ontario Caregiver Organization #caregiver #worklifebalance

Thank you @globeandmail for sharing “Family first,” my thoughts on creating #caregiver friendly workplaces for people balancing work & care for a family member or friend. Recognition & support are vital for caregivers in our workplaces & society. https://t.co/vXv7O1YKVM

The shortage of kids acetaminophen & ibuprofen has been stressful for parents

Thanks to our amazing SMHAFHT pharmacists Brenda Chang, Doret Cheng, and Jon Hunchuck @UnityHealthTO @UofTFamilyMed for this handy resource on how you can split and/or crush adult tabs for kids

@AbigailBimman Can’t help but think if that was a slick plane, the story would be about how public funding is being wasted.

[Amy Coupal @AmyCoupal]

Wishing everyone a #HappyNewYear! It's hard to believe we're approaching the third year of the #COVID19 pandemic. Let's continue to work together to improve the lives of #caregivers and look after one another in this new year.

[Danielle Cowen @_daniellecowen]

@C_Haanstra You are amazing!

[Danielle Cowen @_daniellecowen]

So proud to have been part of this work. We can all help a #caregiver. Read the report for meaningful things you can do as friends, family, health and service providers, educators and employers.

[Christa Haanstra @C_Haanstra]

The load for family caregivers got a lot heavier when the #COVID19 pandemic hit. It's been 89 weeks (622 days!) & the toll on #caregivers has been HUGE. Check in on a caregiver today - they are not okay! #mustread #onpoli #onhealth

@Allowayca Thinking of you at this very difficult time. I’m so sorry for your loss.

[Danielle Cowen @_daniellecowen]

@ONT_Dad @Sarnia_Ontario Timing is wrong. Tone def. Regardless of how long this campaign was in the works, it should have been pulled.

[Amy Coupal @AmyCoupal]

Today is #WorldElderAbuseAwarenessDay. It's been heartbreaking to see seniors become more isolated than ever & #COVID19 = 250% increase in #elderabuse reports via @AdvantAgeOnt. We must do better. #RightsDoNotGeldOld #WEAAD2021 @RyersonNIA @CanAgeSeniors @EAPreventionON @cnpea
