"I'm inspired by Amelia Earhart. I am fascinated and inspired by women who stand out in male-dominated fields." - Catherine Malette, a Critical Care Paramedic, who flies across B.C. caring for critically ill patients as part of our Infant Transport Team #InternationalWomensDay

Proud of this strong woman- proud to call her my wife and life partner. Catherine Malette

Always impressed by the professionalism and skillset of SquamishSAR. Spring is here and the MTB trails are getting busy- do you have a FA kit and training when heading out?

Thanks to Yen Chow for visiting Paramedic Academy to teach the finer points of airway management and SALAD to our Term 2 ACP students.

Thanks for the visit Yen Chow - appreciate the learning for our students Paramedic Academy.

Proud to be a Paramedic. Proud of our profession and all the amazing folks I work with who are dedicated to growing, learning and providing the best patient care possible.

I went to five different Shoppers Drug Mart locations today in Toronto AND Mississauga in search of Tylenol. In each one the cold and cough shelves were empty and I'm extremely, extremely stressed and baffled that we as a society have just accepted it???!

Everyone can agree that being a preceptor or facilitator of practice education in healthcare is essential. How do you prepare for taking on students in the healthcare setting? Could you tell me what education you took to prepare for this role?

Mental heath supports matter- the literature shows that what CMHA National is asking for decreases suidicality and improves outcomes for patients struggling with mental health. Why has Liberal Party not delivered on their promise?

It was great to reconnect with Yen Chow for a session on difficult airway management for our ACP students Paramedic Academy. Thanks for the visit, look forward to seeing you again soon!

The incompotence of ICBC continues to amaze me. My bike was hit by a truck and written off- after months of emails, they agree to cover it. Asessment sent, agreement reached, property release form signed. Nothing for over a month- now I am told that they lost my file.

Now a new adjustor, and more waiting, more documents to send. Rude, unprofessional staff. ICBC be better! If this was private sector, ICBC would be out of businesses in a week- we need to privatize insurance in BC.
