Our first reaction when someone is angry, voices a negative opinion, or asks “to talk to the manager” is to become defensive and take it personally. But it can often be better to create space for someone to voice their opinion, no matter how out of bounds that is, without judgment, being fully present but not involved.

Today, there are roughly 100,000 healthcare apps fitting the health and fitness category in the Apple's App Store and Google Play marketplaces. Yet only a few popular apps lay claim to improving or to presenting any other health system benefits.

We are experiencing one of the worst wildfires seasons in Canada so far. It is important to know what you can do to protect yourself and your loved ones.
Limit your exposure to harmful wildfire smoke by:

• Using the WeatherCAN app to see special air quality statements and the Air Quality Health Index to identify your level of risk.

• Limiting outdoor activity when the air quality is affected by smoke.

• Protecting your indoor air quality by keeping your windows and doors closed and using a good quality air filter in your ventilation system or using a portable air purifier. Turn on your air conditioning, if possible, when temperatures are high.

• If you must spend time outdoors, consider wearing a well-fitted respirator type mask, such as a NIOSH certified N95 or equivalent respirator.

08/10/2023

Nous vivons l'une des pires saisons de feux de forêt au Canada. Il est important de savoir ce que vous pouvez faire pour vous protéger et protéger vos proches. Pour limiter votre exposition à la fumée de feux de forêt nocive :

• Utilisez l’appli MétéoCAN pour voir les énoncés spéciaux sur la qualité de l’air et la Cote air santé pour votre région afin de déterminer votre niveau de risque.

• Limitez vos activités à l’extérieur lorsque la fumée compromet la qualité de l’air.

• Protégez la qualité de votre air à l’intérieur en gardant vos
fenêtres et vos portes fermées et en munissant votre système de ventilation d’un filtre à air de bonne qualité. Si possible, activez votre climatiseur lorsqu’il fait très chaud.

• Si vous devez absolument passer du temps dehors, songez à porter un masque respiratoire bien ajusté (comme un respirateur N95 certifié par le NIOSH ou l’équivalent).
