"In the rush to introduce new policies, including priority setting for acute care, patient & public consultation has largely been bypassed. It is also apparent that the crisis is highlighting gaps in healthcare that patients & carers always knew existed."

#COVID19 has forced us all to see Canada's #healthcare isn't as healthy as people have been saying.

We knew it. We ignored it.

We CANNOT forget his lesson in the months & years ahead.

Last Month during one of his press conferences, @JustinTrudeau had a message for Canadian children about how they can do their part in the fight against #COVID19. It's a powerful statement, one that deserves a version all kids will want to watch. #StayHomeSaveLives #LEGO

"Caregivers are the unsung heroes of #Healthcare"

This thread shows some of the varied roles #caregivers play, their essential role on the team, how reliant the system has become on them, as well as how difficult it is for those that don't have anyone.

This is happening in Ontario as well and is an unfair cost to patients and families.
@ONThealth @fordnation @celliottability Can this be addressed? Example, one dispensing fee for putting together a few Rx to be picked up every 30 days (as required) by chronic patients? https://twitter.com/couragesings/status/1246663622547275779

We in the #patientsafety world have pushed for years against the system that saw medical systems put reputational risk as a priority relative to actual physical risk. Now, the whole world hears us. Lives must come first! https://twitter.com/NightShiftMD/status/1245712508448628739

In what way does ur organizations response to #COVID19: 1. enhance local communities?
2. displace or replace capacities in local communities?
3. retrieve or restore that which had been lost in local communities?
4. Mutate when pushed to extremes in communities? #TogetherApart

#COVID19 may not discriminate but the human systems it enters sure do. What can we do about its unequal impacts & vulnerabilities in #CDNhealth?

Our street now has a WhatsApp group & this morning one neighbour was struggling with loneliness, so earlier we all had a socially distanced cuppa and chat together. This stuff makes a difference. #lookaftereachother
