This includes not just DRs

@ZoeDodd Right on!!!!!! Zoe, thank you for everything you do! We see this in the ER the discrimination- we see how folks n who use our OPS refuse to even step into the hospital.

On a different note:
Also, glad we are not removing the encampment at Allan gardens, displacing people at pride is just politicizing our shame. (Can someone confirm this information, just incase).

All love and Pride

Question about @PrideToronto Toronto Why do we not have an OPS (overdose supervised site) at pride? The amount of overdoses and relapses - y’all do better. Harm reduction folks, who is interested in setting one up with me? Tag and share who may be interested.

We must advocate for housing and designated waiting areas in the ED/Hospital until we can find them proper planning. This is not a new idea we must be advocated to all ED’s with dedicated staff to support patients. As we know homelessness is a human right and a vital component.

We all know there are personal biases that translate into systematic discrimination. I want to really put emphasis on the fact discharging patients who are NFA to the street is not a discharge plan, it is systematic neglect that puts Patient’s at risk. @CAEPConference #ER
