In a letter to the editor in the @PtboExaminer, RNAO CEO @DorisGrinspun writes that nurses are appalled by the @fordnation government’s decision to end funding for supervised consumption service sites, warning that the government will be responsible for hundreds of preventable deaths. "This is a case study of how, when ideology drives policy, people die." Read (paywalled): thepeterboroughexaminer.com/opinion/letter…

The federal government’s deadline for adding nurse practitioners to public health‑care plans is fast approaching, yet some patients in Ontario are still paying out of pocket for primary care. RNAO CEO @DorisGrinspun tells reporter @egpayne that Ontario has essentially had a full year to transition to a model that includes nurse practitioners. “It needs to happen one way or another. There should be no fees for service, period." Read the full story in @ottawasuncom: ottawasun.com/news/nurse-pra… #OnPoli @npig_rnao

Ontario’s government has announced the creation of a new provincewide Primary Care Medical Record system that will integrate patient records, reduce paperwork for doctors, and improve the quality of care patients receive. In the gov't release, RNAO CEO @DorisGrinspun says: "Today’s announcement marks another important step in powering Ontario’s primary care system. Investments in integrated medical records and team-based care are making it easier for people to access timely care. Attaching more Ontarians to a family doctor or a nurse practitioner (NP) is central to our success. To build momentum, we must fasten the growth of NPs and RNs working in primary care and enable them to practise to full scope. A stronger nursing workforce means improved access, enhanced outcomes, more effective, efficient and people-centred care for all Ontarians." Read more: news.ontario.ca/en/release/100…
