Small actions can have a big impact on infection prevention.

Clean your hands regularly. Cover coughs and sneezes. Clean frequently touched surfaces and shared equippment. When you are unwell, take appropriate precautions to help protect the people around you.

Infection prevention doesn't happen because of one person, it happens when all of us make safe practices part of our everyday routines.

This National Infection Control Week, remember: infection prevention is powered by you.

October 12th is World Arthritis Day.

For people living with arthritis, everyday activities that many of us take for granted can sometimes become painful or challenging.

Support, appropriate treatment, movement, assistive strategies and adaptations can help people living with arthritis continue participating in the activities that matter to them.

This World Arthritis Day, we're helping raise awareness and recognizing the millions of people whose lives are affected by arthritis, as well as the families, caregivers, and healthcare professionals who support them.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 🩷🎀

This month, we recognize everyone whose life has been impacted by breast cancer, those living with a diagnosis, survivors, caregivers, families, friends, and those we remember.

Awareness, education, and access to screening can make a huge difference. Take time this month to learn about breast health, know what is normal for you and speak with a healthcare provider about screening that's appropriate for you.

Together, we can continue to support those affected by breast cancer and the people who care for them.

Le 30 septembre, nous soulignons la Journée du chandail orange et la Journée nationale de la vérité et de la réconciliation. C’est l’occasion d’honorer la mémoire des enfants qui ne sont jamais revenus chez eux et de rendre hommage aux survivants et à leurs proches. La réconciliation repose sur le courage de l’écoute, l’humilité de reconnaître les torts d’hier et d’aujourd’hui, ainsi qu’une volonté ferme de faire valoir la vérité tout en dénonçant le dénialisme sous toutes ses formes. Je suis solidaire des peuples autochtones aujourd’hui et chaque jour, et je m’engage dans le travail essentiel et continu de vérité et de réconciliation véritable.

September 30th is Orange Shirt Day and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It’s a time to remember the children who never returned home and to honour Survivors and their families. Reconciliation is rooted in the courage to listen, the humility to acknowledge past and ongoing harms, and an unwavering commitment to upholding the truth while confronting denialism in all forms. We stand in solidarity with Indigenous Peoples today and every day, committing ourselves to the essential, ongoing work of truth-telling and meaningful reconciliation.
