I have patients who are CUPE members who are chronically homeless due to poverty only because of low wages.
Ford government has legislated people into staying in poverty and will fine them into further poverty for believing their hard work should lift them out of poverty.

Bill 124 is part of systemic violence against nurses and women. It is the government's sanctioning of any patient and institutional violence towards nurses. We are professionals not punching bags!
Nurses speak for patients and our community, at HHP we did our part to stand up for our nursing colleagues, @ClintonBaretto thank you for standing up for nurses. #Nursing #onpoli #RepealBill124

Thrilled to tour @hhpeel with minister @MichaelTibollo . This nurse 👨🏾⚕️ 👩⚕️ led initiative focused on primary care & culturally competent model is transforming the way we care for our most vulnerable populations in @regionofpeel . #nursingleadership
Honoured to tour Homeless Health Peel w/ @NatKusendova.
These nurses from various health care backgrounds, including #mentalhealth, have been supporting those experiencing homelessness throughout #COVID19. Thanks to every one of these nurses for their compassion & dedication. 👏

It's amazing how many of these nurses are coming to our isolation site because they are precariously housed to begin with. The vulnerable amongst the most exposed.
"a nurse was fired". The assessing doctor who discharged this poor man? No? The administrators that allow a system that like this function? No? So only the nurse?
Nurses will not be scapegoats for poor leadership and physician bias in patient assessment

Take off the shackles!
The #NP role in Ontario has evolved over the yrs to meet the increasingly complex needs of patients & our healthcare system. We need continued flexibility & nimbleness to ensure NPs are used to their full scope of practice @ONgov @celliottability @DrFullertonMPP @fordnation @CBC
Staying home and doing online kindergarten with my 4 year is going to hurt my business, my career, and my patients. But what other choice do I have? @NPAOntario @RNAO @DorisGrinspun
I expect my nurses to say "I am THE nurse. How can I help you?"
@hhpeel
Thank you for the kind advocacy!
Absolutely, there is no such a thing as "... I am just a nurse". Not now, not tomorrow, not anytime. It is a "..... I am a nurse" #NotJustANurse

We have been asked to serve a second isolation centre in Brampton to serve our community further. We are need more nurses to join us. Qualities we are looking for: bravery, critical thinking, and a sense of justice to advocate for our patients. Join us! email [email protected]
The govt isn't giving the vaccine, skilled nurses are. We've been doing the heavy lifting 24/7 since before march. To demand that we administer vaccines 24/7 over Xmas is the last straw before we break. If you think it's important enough, do the 7pm-7am shift for 1/5 of your pay.

You can comment about his performance during the pandemic, inability to get a grasp on LTC, and numerous other gaffes....
But do not say shit about the cheesecake! It has done nothing but be delicious and should not be a victim by association with it's maker #istandforcheesecake

Part of the ongoing violence and subjugation of nurses
Nurses, who administer most vaccines during public health campaigns and in clinical practice, are furious at not being represented on Ontario's new vaccine task force. via @RNAO @DorisGrinspun #Covid19 #nursing #vaccination #onpoli

This morning, in our @regionofpeel isolation site, we set a personal best for swabs. 21 swabs in 30 mins.
25 patients admitted in the last 12 hours!
@regionofpeel We got you! We got us!
We had 25 admissions to our Homeless Isolation site yesterday. That does not include the ones who couldn't be transported to our site because Transhelp got overloaded (full marks to them for their great work nonetheless!).
PLEASE STAY HOME AND STOP THE SPREAD!

In Peel and covid positive with nowhere to safely and affordably isolate? Call the street helpline and get referred to the COVID isolation hotel. The rooms are nice, food is decent and brought to your door, and my nurses and I will be there to make sure you are ok.
Here's a small collection of holiday cards for the homeless created by our in person and online students to be distributed to homeless shelters in Brampton #hopeforthehomeless @PeelSchools @MandelaPS @RidgeviewPS @DorsetDrive @champlaintrail @GordonGraydon @hhpeel
