My team and I have just wrapped up interviewing nurses working in LTC homes who shared their experiences of caring for residents during wildfires (poor air quality, evacuations). There is so much unacknowledged trauma and all of them were dreading the upcoming fire season.

Human rights should never be ignored when choosing a conference location. The World Stroke congress should never have been held in a location where basic human rights and therefore the safety of participants can not be guaranteed. Stroke Research thelancet.com/journals/lance…

While I am glad to see new nurse/patient ratios for BC hospitals, let's be clear that the areas with the highest ratios - long-term care homes, home care case loads, and, possibly mental health/psychiatry - do not. What is the timeline for these? #bcpoli news.gov.bc.ca/releases/2024H…

Every day in the UK, over 240 people wake up after a stroke. Our new TV advert captures the life-changing impact a stroke can have on anyone, at any age, including children. Our charity is here to help you find your strength through recovery, no matter how long it takes.

Stroke can happen to anyone, but it disproportionately affects women. More women die, face worse outcomes and encounter greater challenges in recovery. This #WorldStrokeDay, learn about their unique risk factors and how we're working to #BeatStroke for women.

What a great start to the World Stroke Org #FutureStrokeLeaders Programme Cohort 3 last week. Looking forward to our journey ahead and the many collaborations to continue to improve #stroke care. A few are missing in the photo so check us out at: world-stroke.org/world-stroke-f…
