One third of nurses on my unit did not work d/t COVID. We worked extremely short w/tremendous workloads, unsafe conditions, compromised patient safety, med errors, moral distress, no breaks & fatigue. Hands up if you believe nurses (& patients) deserve better. Call/write your MPP

Nurse EXPECTED to work 8-12 hr day shifts in a row, w/two back to back shifts b/c the same nurse is on call from 7pm to 7 am. This means if called in for a night shift while on call, must keep working day shift! 24 hrs! How is this safe?@ontarionurses @collegeofnurses

Did you know Ont is the only province with the wage-suppressing #Bill124? This bill is driving nurses to other jurisdictions & fueling the burning #NursingCrisis. Call on Premier @fordnation to immediately #RepealBill124. Sign & share our #ActionAlert: RNAO.ca/policy/action-alerts…

Inflation in Canada hit 7.6% in July 2022 but #ODSP rates have remained frozen since 2018. This threatens people w/ disabilities into homelessness, malnutrition, poor health & desperation. Sign our #ActionAlert to call on Premier @fordnation to #DoubleODSP:RNAO.ca/policy/action-alerts…

Govt hands loads of money over to private nursing agencies rather than #repealbill124 & pay staff nurses a fair wage. This is mismanagement of public funds. Where is the public outcry? #onhealth #onpoli #nursingshortage #NurseTwitter

I wonder where is @KarimaVelji, Chief of Nursing & Professional Practice & Assistant Deputy Minister of Health? I wonder if she thinks the govt has “done quite a bit already” or that we do not have a #healthcarecrisis. Where is the voice of nursing? #onhealth #nursingshortage

Four days the 80 yo woman laid in ER, vomiting, unable to walk, weak & frail. Four dam days! There were NO nurses to admit her to! How long will our govt deny the #heathcarecrisis?! I am just so upset. That poor woman! Enough already! Seniors do NOT deserve this! #onhealth

Let’s be clear. When you are told you or your loved one must wait in an ER for days b/c there are no beds, what they really mean is there are many beds but NO nurses to provide safe care. Hospital admin is complicit in denying the HC crisis #justsayit #nursingshortage #onhealth

Inflation >8% and yet nurses still suffer wage suppression at 1% over 3 yrs! Nurses are undervalued, overworked & disrespected. Pay us what we are worth @fordnation @SylviaJonesMPP #RepealBill124 #nursingshortage #onhealth #onpoli #unfair

"The time to act on all fronts is now," says our CEO @DorisGrinspun calling on Premier @fordnation to reinstate indoor mask mandate to limit #COVID19 spread, reduce pressures on the health system & #RepealBill124 which is driving nurses away. @TorontoStar:thestar.com/opinion/letters_…

Do people get that COVID will spread like wildfire if we don’t have #10paidsickdays? People need to stay home when sick but won’t if it means no food on the table. Write (or call) your MPP #onhealth #onpoli

Right now, your healthcare provider is either: 1) sick with COVID; 2) on a well-deserved vacation; or 3) covering for colleagues in grps 1 & 2, on top of his/her usual duties. I spent the w/e in grp 3. Go easy on your healthcare providers (we are all hurting) and please mask up!

Many have asked about #Bill124. It is wage suppression legislation brought in by @fordnation capping #nurses’ & #teachers’ salaries at 1% over 3 yrs when inflation is nearly 8%. It’s an insult & disrespectful! Bill 124 must be repealed! Write your MPP. #nursingshortage
