- “Unprecedented”- there’s no better word to describe the crisis at #CHEO. Yesterday, we reassigned our Surgical Day Unit and redeployed clinicians from all areas of the hospital to open a second Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. Here's how YOU can help: ow.ly/xbOO50Lz7Te
00:00 - CHEO remains a high-risk environment. Many of the children and youth we serve are immuno-compromised, unvaccinated, and vulnerable. We will continue to require everyone who enters our facilities to be screened and masked.
00:00- 1/8 We wanted to share a bit of a snapshot of what’s been happening at #CHEO as we put all hands of deck to tackle the unprecedented volumes of kids and youth needing urgent care this viral season.
- Replying to @CHEO8/8 And before we wrap up, just a friendly reminder to everyone to follow public health guidance—please mask-up in crowded spaces, get vaccinated, stay home when sick & wash your hands. We can all help protect kids + support the dedicated health professionals who care for them.
- Thank you @CPHO_Canada for helping lead #Canada’s fight against #COVID19! We may not be able to give you a real hug, but here’s a virtual hug from all your friends at #CHEO #ThankYouDrTam
- This has been a spring weekend like no other in CHEO’s 48-year history. A 🧵on why a visit to CHEO right now might feel a bit different. +
- Our Children’s Treatment Centre school had a very special visitor this afternoon: @BradyTkachuk71 from the #Ottawa @Senators! 🏒 He took the time to get down on the carpet to play & gave out autographed #Sens baseball caps. Thank you, Brady!
- #CHEO is ranked as one of the best pediatric hospitals in the world according to @Newsweek! This is a testament to our caring staff, dedicated volunteers and generous community ow.ly/xtdx50vgUQP
- Replying to @CHEO4/4 To all kids and youth 12+ years old sharing selfies and your reasons for getting vaccinated, we see you. We support you. We all want #CommunityImmunity and for this relentless pandemic to end.
- Huge thanks to @GurdeepPandher for stopping by #CHEO today—we had a blast lacing up our dance shoes again!We all love children. Doctors, nurses and other staff at children's hospitals play important roles by providing care for little humans. This morning, it was my honour to dance Bhangra with staff of Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) for their joy and positivity. @CHEO
00:00 - 1/3 Today 215 orange ribbons were attached to trees in #CHEO’s Butterfly Garden, our special memorial garden for children who have died. In this way, CHEO's community honours the lives of the #215children whose bodies were found in a mass grave at the Kamloops residential school.
- Thanks @kyleturris for dropping by yesterday to spend some time with our kids & families. You brought out a lot of smiles.
