Do you know CPR? If you see someone suddenly collapse, your fast action can save their life. Check out St. John Ambulance, the Canadian Red Cross and the Heart and Stroke Foundation to find a First Aid or CPR course near you.

Cold weather and snow make it extra slippery outside. Take additional care when stepping off the last step of stairs. This is a common place for a fall. Use the handrail when available for extra support.

#NHFactCheck ❌Myth: If I’m unsure where to go for care, the ED is always the best choice. ✅Fact: Many non-urgent issues can be treated faster at walk in clinics, urgent care, pharmacies, or through virtual urgent care. 👉Know your healthcare options: ow.ly/jZ0G50XY8I7

Are you winter-ready? Prepare your car with a safety kit: blanket, flashlight, water and non-perishable snacks. Emergencies happen—be prepared!

Fire Chief’s Coins were awarded to Mercedes Soose (Pittsburg) & Leya Foster (Welland) for their incredible courage and compassion in helping a stranger in medical distress. They also met EMS Communicator Heather Potts, who was the calm, steady voice on the other end of the line.
