The @fordnation conservative government trusts for-profit health-care providers to look after Ontarians. But those providers are looking after their bottom line by billing for uncompleted care.
This is what health-care privatization looks like. #onpolicbc.ca/news/canada/to…
The ER in Grimshaw is operating on reduced hours due to a shortage of Registered Nurses.
According to the AHS website, 28 hospitals across Alberta are currently reporting temporary service disruptions and closures, most due to staff shortages.

Manitoba paid nurses from for-profit agencies to work the equivalent of 76.5 years to fill vacant nursing positions during the first 9 mths of the 2023-24 fiscal year. Our govts need to invest in nurses, not corporate profits! #ProfitDoesntCare#cdnhealthwinnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews/2…
Nurses and HCWs are facing mounting pressures - soaring workloads, higher acuity patients, shifts up to 36 hours long & inadequate support. The solution? Improving conditions through coordinated evidence-backed initiatives.

There's a snowball effect coming from increasing addictions crisis, which directly correlates to rising violence, inadequate social programming and a lack of affordable housing. As a result our ERs have become holding cells for those IN NEED of more comprehensive social services.
Isn't it strange that a talk on th future of our public health care system is being given at a business school?
@extendicare & other for-profit long-term care corporations need to stop focusing on #ExtendiPROFIT.
Invest in #CareNotProfit!

ONA President Erin Ariss, RN, and the Presidents of @CUPEOntario & @OPSEU are sounding the alarm over the @fordnation government plowing ahead with misguided changes to home care at a time when more & more Ontarians rely on the service! #onpoli

#NationalDayofMourning. #April28#Ottawa. One flag for every Canadian worker that lost their life at work in Canada last year—1000+. Un drapeau pour chaque travailleur/travailleuse décédés au travail 🇨🇦
On this #DayOfMourning, we gather to honour workers who were made sick, injured or killed on the job. Today we mourn, every day we fight for worker rights. Join a ceremony near you: canadianlabour.ca/events/dom2024/
On April 28, we honour the memory of workers who have passed away, been injured, or fallen ill due to their work. Our pledge is to safeguard workers and avoid future tragedies.
On Sunday, the following organizations will hold their Ceremonies - please consider attending:
Nurses are not only overworked, they're getting injured at alarmingly high rates.
“We have not just vacancies, but we have a lot of people not at work because they’re sick or hurt. So, that exacerbates the problem,” says @nsnu. #nspoli#cdnhealth#canlabglobalnews.ca/news/10395006/…
In Canada, approximately 1,000 workers die as a result of their work every year. Understaffing, unsafe workplaces and working unsafe hours all contribute. Committing to not losing one more nurse on account of unsafe working conditions would be radical change.
This gut-wrenching read echoes the pain nurses are sharing about trying to provide care without adequate staffing and support. The heartbreaking reality is that working overcapacity + short-staffed means patient care suffers. #StaffUpSaveLivesthestar.com/opinion/contri…#cdnhealth
