In 9 days Health Care leaders from around Canada will attend this national forum on the future of Emergency Medicine. Those provinces that are sending representatives are keen to help Canadians. Those that don’t……aren’t.

We've had a great morning of learning from incredible researchers working on innovative projects concerning healthcare delivery.

Thank you to our presenters for sharing their expertise with us.

Thanks Patrick for continuing to move this important work along. Finding the problem is the first step; acknowledging it the second (I think health systems are getting closer to that); designing and implementing solutions (which I know you and team are working on) is the most

Another reminder that on April 22, we will be hosting our research showcase! This event will highlight the latest developments shaping the future of healthcare delivery in Alberta. Scroll through to learn more!

You can’t make this stuff up 🤯🤣

Danielle Smith planning to ‘review’ the type of research (medical/scientific) being federally funded because <checks notes> university educated people tend to have open-minded progressive (ie. not UCP) views 👀

A powerful and insightful message from Fareen Zaver. What a blessing to know colleagues with the courage to reflect, reimagine, and embrace the optimism of a better tomorrow.

SASKATCHEWAN docs - the Nat’l Emerg Conference is in Saskatoon June 9-12. And anyone can take advantage of amazing pre-conference CME opportunities (you do not need to attend the conference). Check out the options👇 & caepconference.ca for further details. #CAEP24 Saskatoon

What a reminder of our privilege at UCalgaryEM grand rounds. To reimagine global health, high income countries that typically hold power and privilege must provide allyship and analyze intersectionality and power.

Another great awardee! Stephen is just a brilliant ER physician with a particular interest in GI pathogens - something that makes me love him even more!

Concerned about crowded emergency rooms? CAEP is the national voice for patients and solutions to keep them safe.

Please join them in advocating for you. No one should die waiting for care. No one.

We are excited to host our upcoming forum on the Future of Emergency Care and have invited Deputy Ministers from each of Canada's provinces and territories. Some are still on the fence.

Papers beginning to seriously challenge mammography screening.
