I’m pleased to proclaim today as #RehabilitationDay in @ottawacity, in recognition of our world-class health facilities that work to improve the lives of so many people in the National Capital Region and beyond.

September 15th is #RehabilitationDay ! For patients, rehabilitation can improve health outcomes, reduce disability and help individuals remain independent and in their homes well into their older years.

Access to rehabilitation in hospital, outpatient or in-home can allow seniors recovering from illness or injury to regain their independence and remain at home, reducing premature long term care placement and pressures on the LTC system.

Going back to work is an important step for so many people after recovering from a stroke. Knowing how fatigue can affect survivors can help health care professionals prepare patients with what to expect and how to address it.
New research in @PLOSONE shows the impact of post-stroke fatigue on stroke survivors’ ability to return to work and resume driving: bruyere.org/en/Blog/returnin…

If we end up naming a school after our newest gold medalist, the most Canadian thing would be to call it De Grasse Junior High.

Just like individuals are the sum of their lived experiences, countries must reconcile that same fact.
The past is who we are today, but doesn’t need to be all we are tomorrow.
