This #WorldMenopauseDay, we recognise the difficulty women have accessing the support they need for menopause and perimenopause. But as AMA Member @drmsimonis told @NewsTalk4BC this week, long-overdue momentum is building in the discussion about women's health issues 👏

@safer_families @mike_salter @hegarty_kelsey @drmsimonis @AnneHollonds @rfiolet @SilkeMeyer_DFV Need to first fix the places these children are sent to.. Residential homes is where most damage is done to these children! Child safety standards need to be improved!! To see first hand how these children are treated is the real crime here.. We need to do better.

It’s time we recognised chronic urinary tract infection "As our understanding [of urinary tract infection] evolves, it is evident that some infections can be chronic or persistent: this is an important paradigm shift imparting practice and policy implications." @theMJA
