Thanks for commenting. After 20 years of doctoring, let me tell you want a Registered Nurse caring for you when you are sick. I have witnessed many lives saved, errors caught, and great compassion provided by an RN. Supporting RNs is supporting the citizenry and yourself.

Might be a new record? KingstonHSC QueensEM

God bless nurses, indeed! This--this is why patients die when there are not enough nurses. People who think all we do is empty bedpans and say "Yes doctor" need to wake up to the reality of #NoCareWithoutNurses #NurseTwitter #MedTwitter #PatientCare

Doctors are not nurses. Nurses’ professional skills are not my competency. We resort to desperation in the absence of a government that gives a damn.

Could someone tell Lakeridge the secret we have been hiding. There is a nursing shortage. They are actually laying off Registered Nurses. SHOCKING !! Doug Ford Ontario Nurses' Association @NurseWithSign OntarioNurses United

ONA is in court this week to challenge #Bill124 and fight for our rights – as nurses, as workers and as a largely female profession. We're proud to join our labour kin to #Challenge124. OFL CUPE Ontario @ETFOEducators SEIU Healthcare OPSEU/SEFPO United Steelworkers

RNs matter. It was a Markham-Stouffville ICU RN who first connected the dots on the aconite mass poisoning and then called down to the ER successfully resuscitating the patients. Ontario's Bill 124 is public policy vandalism. RNAO @CathrynOna Ontario Nurses' Association Dr. Doris Grinspun 🇨🇦 RN, PhD, FAAN, O.ONT

Nurse resignations en masse. They’ve had enough. Ontario petulantly clings to destructive Bill 124. It’s up to all of us - we reap what we sow and we’ve driven nursing into the ground. ⁦Megan Ogilvie⁩ ⁦Kenyon Wallace⁩ thestar.com/news/canada/20…

Nurses struck down bill 124 and doctors are elated! A victory for the public!
