Did you know that up to 70% of medical decisions are guided by lab results? That's why it's vital for our lab to have access to the best equipment possible when you and your loved ones need it most.

Because of generous community support, a new coagulation analyzer is now hard at work in the OSMH laboratory, and it is already changing how quickly patients receive care.

This advanced equipment delivers faster results, broadens testing capabilities, and uses fewer supplies. This analyzer directly helps patients move from testing to diagnosis to treatment without delay.

“Our work often happens behind the scenes, so knowing the community supports us means a great deal,” says Malery Tatone, Charge Technologist for Hematology.

Deepening our continuous quality improvement roots!

This past Tuesday, March 10th an incredible Team of Skin Champions and students gathered for our 2nd annual International Pressure Ulcer Prevalence (IPUP) Survey.

Today, on Canadian Women Physicians Day, we celebrate the women physicians who shape the future of medicine in Canada.

This day marks the milestone of Dr. Jennie Trout, the first woman licensed to practice medicine in Canada in 1875, whose determination opened doors for generations to follow.

From trailblazers who challenged barriers to the women physicians delivering exceptional care today, their expertise, leadership, and advocacy continue to strengthen our health care system.

Take a moment to thank a woman physician who has made a difference in your life, community, or workplace.

Yesterday we marked , celebrating the incredible women who strengthen OSMH and our community every day.

This year's theme “Give to Gain,” encouraged us to reflect on the meaningful impact of giving — giving time, skills, knowledge, and also giving voice, growth, visibility, respect, safety, training, and role models. These are the gifts that build stronger teams, empower future leaders, and create a more inclusive environment for all.

At OSMH, we see these values in action throughout every corner of our hospital.
To all our team members: thank you for the countless ways you contribute to patient care, innovation, and community well-being. Your dedication does not go unnoticed, and it inspires us daily.

Let’s continue to uplift one another and build a workplace where everyone has the opportunity to learn, lead, and thrive. 💜

đź’Ş đź’śOSMH Takes on 2026! đź’śđź’Ş

As we wrap up the final week of The Push-Up Challenge 2026, our OSMH team is proud of the momentum we’ve built in support of mental health awareness alongside CMHA- Simcoe County

Here at OSMH, our teams have truly stepped up. With participants logging reps in the app—and teams like C6 tracking their tally at the nursing station—we have now completed more than 4,500 push-ups! 💥

For us, this challenge is about:

➡️ Continuing to change the narrative.
➡️ Encouraging open, honest conversations.
➡️ Breaking the stigma surrounding su***de and mental health.

Every push-up represents awareness, solidarity, and a commitment to supporting one another—inside our hospital and throughout our community.

Let’s finish strong and keep pushing for better mental health.
