( March 8 ) is an opportunity to celebrate the incredible achievements of women and girls while recognizing the ongoing work needed to achieve true gender equality.

As health care professionals, we can strengthen our commitment by continuing to educate ourselves about the unique health needs of women. A gender health gap still exists, leading to disparities in health outcomes and access to care.

Today, and every day, we celebrate the remarkable women who contribute their expertise, compassion, and leadership at Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre and the Thunder Bay Regional Health Research Institute.

Together, we can continue working toward a more equitable and healthier future for everyone.

It’s not a conversation most people want to have: stool samples and cancer. But when it comes to colon cancer, avoiding the conversation can be far more uncomfortable than having it.

Colon cancer often develops without symptoms, which is why regular screening is one of the most effective ways to catch the disease early. In many cases, the first warning sign is something only a stool test can detect. When detected and treated early, 9 out of 10 people with colon cancer can be cured. Yet in Northwestern Ontario, 42 per cent of eligible adults are overdue for screening.

📸: The f***l immunochemical test (FIT) has been used to screen for colon cancer in Ontario since 2018. It is a test that effectively detects microscopic amounts of blood in the stool.

March is , a time to celebrate the profession of engineering. Engineers in hospitals work in a variety of roles, including project planning and ex*****on, facility engineering, and biomedical engineering. They design, develop, and maintain equipment and spaces to support clinical care.
