Premiers need to stop seeing patients as budget busters & see the cost of health care as a sign of public policy failure. The big #health budgets are their penalty for not making social policies that work. André Picard #canpoli #sdoh The Globe and Mail theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

📢 New Publication: an introduction to Bayesian statistics and a primer on how to interpret Bayesian trial results

Sunday on Checkup, we're revisiting an ongoing, important issue: how are Emergency Department wait times affecting you? Whether you're a patient, family member or work at a hospital, consider callinf or replying. In the last 45, we'll switch to bike lanes. Lots to talk about.

Colin D'Mello | Global News The person being irresponsible here is Doug Ford. Numerous studies have shown that it is not low acuity patients who lead to ED crowding, it's admitted patients not being able to move upstairs. And low acuity isn't 50% of our volume, it's 15%. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

ED wait times are a barrier to providing quality emerg care to CNDs. People falsely believe wait times reflect inappropriate ED visits however access block is a greater contributor. If Canadians want the ED to be ready for them this needs the attn of the entire health system.

Aleksandra Mineyko Thank you Aleksandra!

Thanks @SarahGiles10 for this honest and well-written (as usual) explanation of the reality — the "moral injury" — we face in emergency medicine. "I am sorry that the health-care system is unable to meet all of your needs" cbc.ca/news/canada/fi…

glad to write an article for the The Globe and Mail about hospital crowding/wait times and how the public can show up for ERs instead of in them. one day, we won't need the rooms, and the medicine will come to us. until then, here are some things you can do: theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
