I'm detecting a lot of anger, confusion and uncertainty about the increasingly worrisome details about #OmicronVarient. Let's remember we also have masks, rapid tests, vaccines, powerful antiviral medications and lots of kind & hard working people. We'll get through this.

I’m a 15 year veteran RN of the Emergency department. A few years ago I did a brief stint in ICU, mostly with the goal of broadening and strengthening my critical care skills, but always with the intent to return to emerg. In the Nurse world, there are ICU nurses and there are

If you are an ICU nurse working in a Canadian ICU during the COVID-19 pandemic and have experienced moral distress, please contact @gehrkep_ @jacksm08. They are conducting a very important study on ICU nurses.
Please share widely with your nursing networks or ICU colleagues! @rnao @macnursing

Love that this idea, originated by St. Mary's nurses Leslie Waitson and Carly Blair, has spread to our partner hospitals. Even people waiting for their vaccines are singing it. How great is that? Thanks @nicolelampa for the story. @grhospitalkw @_CMHospital

Overheard last night working in ER: “...I’m just a nurse.” I’ll say it again there’s NO such thing as “just” a nurse. Pass it on.

Truly wish I didn’t have to send this message but.... time to lockdown from Oshawa to Niagara, north to Barrie and west to London. HCWs can’t sustain these demands and stresses.
