IMPORTANT: The following is a message to #ygk and the 500,000 residents we serve across southeastern Ontario. As we enter the holiday season, we’re asking for your help. Image We continue to see patients with COVID-19 as infection rates hold steady across our region. We’re averaging about 15-20 COVID inpatients per-day, some in the ICU. Meanwhile, we’ve now hit peak RSV season and flu cases are beginning to rise in the area.

IMPORTANT: As hospitals continue to navigate a surge of children experiencing respiratory illness from COVID, RSV & Influenza, KHSC is stepping up to support Ontario’s health-care system. KHSC has recently received 10 pediatric patient transfers from across the province. 🧵👇 As we did in 2021, when we accepted over 150 COVID patients from the GTA, we are again proving that we are a critical resource for the Ontario health-care system.

IMPORTANT: With a second weekend of unsanctioned Homecoming celebrations expected in #ygk, KHSC has put plans in place to support increased patient demand. However, we’re urging everyone to reconsider attending as these events put additional strain on hospital resources.🧵👇 ImageImageImage We need to have a serious discussion as a community about the impact these events are having on our hospital. Large street parties like this take place multiple times per-year and are putting an extreme strain on an already overburdened health-care system.

The following is a message to #ygk and the 500,000 patients we serve across SE Ontario. As #COVID19 measures have eased across the province, life is starting to feel a little more normal. But at here at #myKHSC it’s not business as usual. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. 🧵👇 Thankfully we’re not yet seeing an increase in COVID hospitalizations. But, over the last two years many people have seen delays in care or have stayed home when they needed care. Now, we’re seeing higher volumes than ever before of very sick patients who need our help.
