The #dementia journey is hard for the person and their caregiver. A clinic like this would have been so helpful when my mom first started experiencing memory issues: https://t.co/qRcVWVYIpr

If you're living with #longCOVID, help researchers learn more so they can improve treatments. The website was designed with patient partners & lets you compare your symptoms to others. https://t.co/See9ptFUtU

“This website is a wonderful way for people living with long COVID to share details about their symptoms and to share their story,” said @CHEOSNews scientist Dr. Linda Li.

To date, it's the only website of its kind in Canada.

Long #COVID is a new condition. It is complex & not well understood. Check out this excellent opp for those living with long COVID to share experiences so we can better understand how it impacts people & how to best support them in their recovery. #patientengagement

Loving the closing panel at #PPF22 especially @LyanaPatrick insights about importance of language within and between cultures.

[Lori Last @lastwordYVR]

2/2 Her conclusions: involving families and loved ones in developing pandemic management policies could have mitigated some of these negative impacts. #PPF22

[Lori Last @lastwordYVR]

Validating to hear @FHavaei talk about her research project that looked at negative impact of visitation and infection control policies had on LTC residents during Covid 19 lockdowns. #PPF22 1/2
