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.

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?

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. @NikolaSprigg

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.
This morning's wildfire briefing was giving me 2017 vibes 😖This page pulls together a lot of useful info as we head into what could be another intense wildfire season
