Hi all,

Please look at the 7 remaining open shifts in Bracebridge between feb 26th and end of march…

$25 per hour incentive now approved for anyone picking up these hours….

I am not anticipating open shifts in the next schedule ( Tony sending out this evening)….

This incentive can apply for Jeffs feb 26th afternoon shift too ( which he posted and needs covered for its c section day!!)

Ask your friends and feel free to direct them to me.
HFO has posted a locum add for us to try and get these filled too admit many other things explored!!

Any questions please text me or email me direct.
thanks
John

Hi all,

FINALLY…FINALLY
after over a year of negotiation.

We have final approval to order the KING VISION ( “a” blade system with ET tube track, along with paediatric adaptor and peds blades). I think the KING vision peds addition will be a great replacement for the airtrac peds as they expire.

Does anyone feel strongly we need to trial them before we just buy them for both ER”S??
Admin wants me to ask this question.

If anyone wants the full story from me just text or call me. If anyone feels strongly that this is something we don’t need or want ( and need to trial before buying) then let me know.
No response means you are ok with each department getting this and will consider using it!!

Please document on all admissions who MRP is when admitting to internal medicine.

Dr Moran is declining calls by ICU and ER staff saying he is not MRP despite the ED doc having handed over the patient.

Please if you admit someone and wait till the am to call the internist ( or any mrp) please close the loop and advise nursing to document the MRP informed ( or write it on the chart).

I was asked to spread this word by the chair of internal medicine
thanks
