It is absolutely cruel, unfair & heartless to change the rules, & throw out folks who have chosen PEI as their new home & are providing important services through their work. How about grandfathering those already here, & working with them to retrain in critical areas? #peipoli

Statement from Karla Bernard calling on the Dennis King government to support workers already here on PEI and grandfather them into the province's new immigration policy 👇 #peipoli

In February at the state-of-the- province address, Premier Dennis King said that more patients would come off the patient registry than go on it. Yet that hasn't happened and the registry continues to grow. Now 22% of Islanders are without a family doctor. #peipoli

New P.E.I. patient registry numbers just dropped…. To no one’s surprise (except maybe Dennis king) things are not getting better. #peipoli
Now 22% of islanders are without a doctor.

Op-ed from Matt MacFarlane on Premier King whipping his caucus and voting down the sick notes bill. The bill was an opportunity for government to show it is actually listening to the frontline and not just paying lip service. #peipoli saltwire.com/prince-edward-…

Saying thank you is just not near enough! I hope that there are lots of things about #NursingWeek2024 that make you feel genuinely appreciated and valued🩷 #peipoli

This #NursingWeek2024 we extend our gratitude and appreciation to all nurses on PEI. Nurses are integral to healthcare - providing excellent care to patients and advancing healthcare innovation. The Green Caucus will continue to listen to and work with all nurses. #peipoli

It was a great afternoon of conversations and learning at the NFU PEI Land is one of our most precious resources and Government of PEI is not doing enough to protect it! Thank you for keeping these important conversations going.

It’s a perfect morning on the south shore for setting day.
Wishing everyone safe sailing and full traps. #settingday

Today marks the first Cyber Bullying Awareness Day. The effects of cyber bullying are so damaging and wide spread. It is important that we talk about this openly to remove stigma and shame. Today we remember Harry Burke and send love to his family and friends. #peipoli

Oi Government of PEI if even Doug Ford realizes this isn’t an appropriate use of the health system and that admin burden is drowning primary care, perhaps you shouldn’t have voted against the Green Party of PEI common sense legislation here *with nearly the same effect.*

Today is the inaugural Cyber Bullying Awareness Day in memory of Islander, Harry Burke. May social media become a safer space, and Harry’s name never be forgotten.

“This spring sitting showed Islanders just how little the PC government has to offer Islanders. Not only is this the most secretive government ever... this is a government that doesn’t want to make the changes Islanders need.' Karla Bernard #peipoli

Great work, Kay M. Dingwell🍁🩺🏳️‍🌈! Reducing physician admin burden is one way we can ensure PEI docs are spending their time looking after patients, which is where we need them most.

DYK it's reported that PEI docs spend 67,895 hours on admin work with sick notes being one example.
