Healthcare workers of various types are in short supply in Canada. It’s a key reason why we have backlogs in care. Lots of jobs. The province of BC on the west coast has made it much easier for healthcare workers from the US to move there. Other provinces are working on shortening the process too.
Heard about this source helping Americans learn more about moving to Vancouver Island. There was a great show on CBC Radio’s programme White Coat, Black Art hosted by Dr. Brian Goldman on this topic, interviewing the Maffins who created helpful info and sources.
There is also a group on Discord with discussions and where questions can be answered, also started by the Maffins.

I've seen many stories like this over the years from folks with ME/CFS - they get a cancer diagnosis & are shocked by the different treatment from doctors and nurses.
This story's about someone with Long Covid, but it's very similar.
"Breast cancer exposed the lack of care I receive for Long COVID"

RE: https://disabled.social/@ahimsa_pdx/116370775844595085
Thanks to all who've already signed these letters! ❤️
(see quoted post)You can help us even more by asking others - friends, family, neighbors - to sign. Anyone in the US can sign, only takes a few minutes.
The form asks for email address, name (first / last), city, state & zip. Street address not required.
Folks with no personal connection to an ME/CFS patient can sign as "patient advocate / community member"
Form:

Hello 👋
I need your help! We need as many signatures on this community letter as possible! Anyone in the USA can sign! Allies needed!
Solve ME & #MEAction are asking State Medical Boards to add ME/CFS questions to national licensing exams.
Doctors need to learn about ME/CFS!
Please sign here:

https://www.mkuh.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Women-with-Disabilities-and-Special-Needs-Guideline.pdf "Appendix 1: MOTHERS WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES GUIDANCE TOOL
V
Value family – Involve individuals who best know the woman with learning disabilities as they can provide additional information that may be helpful to the decision-making process.
A
Avoid making assumptions – Do not assume that because someone has a diagnosis of a learning disability that they cannot be good enough parents
L
Look for support – Professionals should not work in isolation and should involve learning disability services for further support and guidance.
U
Understand emotions – Take into consideration that many mothers with learning disabilities have their own anxieties and worries about motherhood and fear of judgment. Do not assume they are being difficult.
E
Establish reasonable adjustments – Professionals should put reasonable adjustments into place to ensure women with learning disabilities can comprehend and understand information to give informed consent. I.E. easy read, pictorials, large font, visual and hearing aids.M
Mental Capacity – Do not assume capacity. In liaison with the Mental Capacity Act 2005, professionals should consider completing a Mental Capacity Assessment (MCA) to establish whether the women can give informed consent. Professionals should also consider best interest, Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) and involving an Independent Mental Capacity Advocate (IMCA).
E
Efficient discharge – Professionals should consider possible support that can be put into place to ensure a person-centered discharge is consolidated. Consider, access to health and additional services, transport, financial support and accommodation.THINK... VALUE ME"

Omfg. Read section 3.4 "Learning Disabilities support" on page 5. Literally everyone will be helped by these suggestions, not just diagnosed disabled people.
https://www.mkuh.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Women-with-Disabilities-and-Special-Needs-Guideline.pdf
"3.4 Learning Disabilities support
Although 7% of people with learning disabilities become parents ( Best Beginnings) the Equality Act 2010 obligates responsibility to service providers to ensure that reasonable adjustments are put into place to ensure the holistic needs of people with learning disabilities are met to the highest standards.
Remember to think VALUE ME! (Appendix 1)1. Early intervention strategies should be considered. Ensure that the community midwife is involved and if they are under 20 consider discussion with the specialist teenage pregnancy midwife for additional support.
2. Professionals should ensure that adequate time is provided for consultations, appointments and formal discussions. Taking time to allow the woman to understand the information in
order to make an informed decision.
3. Professionals should ensure that reasonable adjustments are put into place to aid with understanding. Including: easy read, pictorials, large font, visual and hearing aids.
4. Abilities led practice rather than inabilities led practice. Professionals should avoid making assumptions based on a diagnosis of a learning disability as often mothers will have their own anxieties, fears and worries regarding motherhood.
5. Avoid assuming that mothers are being difficult. Consider other possible reasons such as the environment, loud noises, bright lights (especially if they have a dual diagnosis of learning disability and ASD), sensory needs, stress and anxiety. Provide a side room if possible."#maternity #pregnancy #ObGyn #Obstetrics #pregnant #nativity #disabled #DisabledJoy #DisabledFedi #disability #MedMastodon #med #meds #medicine #medical

The claim is circulating that antidepressants can cause overheating and dehydration. This is a genuine public health message, but it's not so simple: diuretics, beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, antipsychotics, and some antihistamines may also interact badly with hot weather.
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/15/well/live/heat-weather-medication-safety.html (excerpt in a reply)There's even doubt about antidepressants having this effect. A recent paper in eClinicalMedicine looked at all the studies they could find and concluded that there wasn't evidence of antidepressants causing overheating in hot weather - though some other medicines do.
"Current evidence supports strong anticholinergics, non-selective beta-blockers, adrenaline, and anti-Parkinson’s agents impairing thermoregulation during heat stress ... physicians should interpret with caution conventional public health messaging related to the thermoregulatory effects of some drugs (e.g., antidepressants) during hot weather."

Hello #Blocktober24!
Today we're talking adductor canal blocks for knee arthroplasty.
A recent UK survey showed that:
• 89% favoured levobupivacaine
• > 60% of these preferred 2.5 mg/ml and a volume of 20 - 24mlWhat drug, concentration & volume do you use?

Email from #MEAction:
"We are less than a month away from launching #MillionsMissing 2024, and we are thrilled at the success we’re already seeing with the campaign!
We know the impact of #TeachMETreatME will be HUGE with thousands more clinicians across the country being educated on how to diagnose and treat the ME. Some of these clinicians will become the specialists we so desperately need."

Jaime Seltzer of #MEAction gave her first "Teach M.E., Treat M.E." talk yesterday, part of a campaign to educate health care workers about ME/CFS and Long Covid.
Lots more talks scheduled for May and June.
This whole initiative is led by people who have ME/CFS and Long Covid.
