Housing is a social determinant of health. Health in children with medical complexity is also a determinant of housing needs, options and preferences. Great work led by @julia_orkin & her team (@kay_esser @claramoore14@daniellearje@SKComplexCare & more) https://t.co/ECTd71M24B
I'm not a big "tweeter"... but after a month of working in the ICU, I can't stay silent about our gov't's disappointing #COVID19 response. Today I wrote to my MPP @JessicaBellTO and @fordnation@celliottability asking for vaccines for essential workers & a stay home order (1/3)
#SchoolsAreEssential for kids. Policy decisions must be made with the goal of keeping schools open in mind - incl. prioritizing educators, school staff, mental and physical health support workers and child protection workers for immunization. More here: https://t.co/5woXK24kMI
I support universal, comprehensive & portable prescription drug coverage for children.
Canada is the only country with universal health care but no drug coverage.

We believe all children & youth should have equitable access to safe, effective and affordable prescription medications. Help make this a reality by writing to your Member of Parliament today to urge them to support Bill C-213, the Canada #Pharmacare Act! https://t.co/pArqViHOko
Our PGY 1 residents had their last Bootcamp session today 🎉 Bootcamp is weekly sessions orienting our newest team members to key components of peds residency (+ bonding, of course!)🩺👶🏻
Can you believe it’s already been one week since our new @SickKidsNews R1s joined us? We included face buttons in the welcome packages for each resident so that patients and team members can see behind their mask 😷👉🏼☺️#WelcomeWednesday#MedEd@lfriedman14@AtkinsonAdelle
Hey @MedCouncilCan it's time to take full responsibility. Stop pointing the finger. Our new grads deserve better than this. This is not "standardized".

@MedCouncilCan You know what's worse than having to write a 7.5 hr exam that costs $1300 and has a pass rate of ~95%? Getting 6 hrs in, having the system that was launched before it was ready crashing, and having to rewrite the entire exam. #mccqe1
Ontario HealthCare Providers released an open letter this morning -signed by 1225 healthcare providers -calling for a reversal of cuts to Supervised Injection Sites & Overdose Prevention Sites. Rally today at 12 at Queen's Park. #OPSsavelives#CutsWillKill https://t.co/Cj73jSIN3v
Glad to see we're making progress in destigmatizing mental health, but there's still a long way to go. #BellLetsTalk about mental health, and about making mental health care services available to more Canadians
So inspired after listening to @cbcwhitecoat podcast on the special partnership between @SloanesHouse & @julia_orkin. Highlights the importance of listening to patient's needs & working to enact change.
Everyone should listen, especially my fellow med student colleagues! #MedEd
