On #ICNCongress Day 5 @JustinTrudeau joined us to discuss and acknowledge how nurses play an essential role within our public universal healthcare system. #ICN2023 @BCCancer @UBCNursing
Special guest #Canadian Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau at #ICNCongress Day 5 Plenary: “During #pandemic we spent a lot of time telling you you were heroes, you are true heroes. But nice compliments don’t pay the rent, give you more autonomy, prevent you from burning out." #ICN2023

My Dad died of colon cancer last year. An incidental finding of 20 liver mets were discovered during an unrelated ultrasound. He was asymptomatic with metastatic colon cancer. It can be a silent disease that is discovered much too late. Get screened, I did.
Colon cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed forms of cancer, affecting 1 in 6 people in British Columbia. In its early stages, there are often no symptoms- which is why screening is so important: https://t.co/aFrVSRBGmw
