In honour of Canadian medical school acceptances coming out earlier this month, my favourite piece of advice for incoming med students: Everyone in medical school is smart; what sets people apart is those who are kind.

Congrats Ehsan!🎉

Immediate action needed to support Northern Ontario family doctors working to keep emergency rooms on the brink of closure open. The OCFP, SGFP and Ontario Medical Association are calling for a rapid response to urgently support family docs and patients. bit.ly/3OrSufE

ER closures are not an option for our patients. It’s only rocks, trees and (beautiful) lakes for the 100’s of kilometres to the next Emergency Department.

Went on on Ornge transfer yesterday. Shoutout to all the amazing paramedics and pilots who get our patients to where they need to be! #ornge #teamwork

Coincidence or planned? When a preceptor and learner arrive in clinic dressed the same😀. NOSM U Physician Workforce Strategy NOSM University | Université EMNO #medicaleducation

Doctors should “recommit to maintaining generalist skills” as they specialise so they can “respond to the inexorable rise of multimorbidity,” England’s chief medical officer, Chris Whitty, has said bmj.com/content/383/bm…

Thanks to Ontario Medical Association for highlighting some of the challenges (and joy) of working in Northern ON. NOSM U Physician Workforce Strategy #ruralmedicine

Happy World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week. Remember to prescribe wisely 😀. #WorldAMRAwarenessWeek #AntimicrobialResistance Brad Langford

Today marks #WAAW2023: World Antibiotic Awareness Week What do I want you to be aware of: the bugs are winning—we have fewer options to treat more infections than we did 10 years ago. No other class of diseases can say that. Let’s save what we have—and try to get new ones.

Congratulations to NOSM University | Université EMNO faculty Dr Laura Noack (Kenora) and Dr Richard Kvas (Timmins) on these wonderful regional family physician honours from OCFP! Dr. Barb Zelek Anj Paul Miron Dr. Sarita Verma (She/Her) Maia Kvas NOSM U Physician Workforce Strategy

We wore blue for #WAAW2023. And here’s some easy things our small rural hospital is doing to help fight #AntimicrobialResistance -4 moments stickers on charts -Bug and Drug reminder stickers -Strict Time Out policies #ruralmedicine #teamwork

The list of Ontarians without a family doctor continues to grow. There are now 2.5M Ontarians without a family doctor. System-wide issues are stretching family doctors thin, but we can turn this around with urgent action from government. bit.ly/3LlLdgo
