Insulin is not a cure! We need the non-diabetes world to know how much diabetes research still matters despite the fancy CGMs and insulin pumps. Those are part of our treatment. We still need a cure. #t1d#type1diabetes#WorldDiabetesDay2022
This national position statement on #transition is a Call 4 Action to address system barriers & improve outcomes for youth. We are advocating for more flexible age cut offs for transfer, considering each youth’s developmental stage and capacity, as well as individual family needs
ONA is launching a province-wide multi-media ad campaign calling out the government’s failure to address critical health-care issues and urging Ontarians to vote for public health care in the upcoming provincial election.

Advocacy is a core competency for physicians. A health care system that serves patients best is one where health care professionals feel safe to express disagreement with the decisions that leaders are making. Grateful to @BrooksFallis for advocating despite a lack of safety.
Apparently, the government feels they just gave us a 6.9% pay increase???? A one time payment is NOT a pay raise. It is a payoff!!! Repeal Bill 124 and give us a real pay increase give us back our rights @fordnation@ontarionurses@NursesWant@celliottability
Premier Ford can make all the election cash grab promises he wants but we know he’s made our lives much more unaffordable for four years.
- Cut paid sick days
- Froze minimum wage in 2018
- Bill 124 capping public sector wage increases at 1%
- No $10/day childcare #onpoli
To every company offering "wellness stipends" to fight burnout:
Funding gym visits, vacations, and healthy meals is a bandage, not a cure.
If you really care about well-being, you might want to stop overloading people with grueling work and subjecting them to abusive bosses.
We are still admitting covid patients into our ICUs. For those who act like covid is over, it's not. I keep seeing young adults who end up infecting their loved ones. They cry, express regrets but it's often too late. While you can, do the right thing. Tears will not save lives.
Another experienced ICU & charge nurse leaving. The mass exodus of nurses is hurting morale & patient care. Working conditions, short staffing, lack of adequate mental health support, & Bill 124 are destroying us & the healthcare system. The situation is critical.
