Measles is highly contagious and characterized by a blotchy, red rash. It can cause serious complications like pneumonia and brain swelling (encephalitis).

Immunization is the best way to prevent measles. Talk to your health-care provider or call Health Links – Info Santé about how to catch up (1-888-315-9257) to ensure everyone is up to date. If you are planning to travel with an infant between 6 months and 12 months of age, talk to your health care provider about early measles vaccination.

Unsure if you have received the measles vaccine and want to check your immunization records? Have questions about the vaccine? Talk to your health-care provider or local public health office or request your records online: https://forms.gov.mb.ca/immunization-update-request/

April 7 is Oncology Nursing Day

The moment someone receives a cancer diagnosis, their whole world changes. There are often unknowns, worries and questions that come to mind all at once. As a primary oncology nurse with CancerCare Manitoba, Jennifer Fisher-Cote, helps answer questions and concerns, walking patients through their care journey ahead; before, during, and after treatment.

“I really like the continuity of care we provide for our patients. We develop very strong rapports with these patients and their families. We are their cheerleaders during treatment,” shared Fisher-Cote.

Fisher-Cote specializes primarily in head and neck radiation therapy. Her team members describe her as a wealth of knowledge, sharing her expertise and encouragement with co-workers, and advocating for continued learning and growth.

“I am grateful for my colleagues in medical oncology, allied health, and our psychosocial team, as we collaborate to provide comprehensive care for our patients. No matter what, together, we form a united team dedicated to helping patients navigate their cancer journeys.”

Join us the first Wednesday of each month from 12:15 p.m.-12:55 p.m. to hear from a Manitoba nurse about their journey through their nursing career!

The next WOW Wednesday takes place today, April 1, and features Bonnie DeJaeger.

"I graduated from the Accelerated Nursing Diploma Program at Red River College in 2008. I began my nursing career in Cardiology at St. Boniface Hospital, where I worked for two years. While working in the Coronary Care Unit, I was exposed to dialysis, which led me to complete the Manitoba Nephrology Nursing Program in 2011. Following this, I worked in both Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis at St. Boniface Hospital and in 2018 transferred to the Seven Oaks Hospital Peritoneal Dialysis Unit. In 2021, I assumed the role of Clinical Resource Nurse to the PD Unit there. Most recently, in August 2024, I became the Transition Coordinator for Kidney Health Manitoba."

Manitoba’s health system recognizes Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV), a time dedicated to celebrating the lives and contributions of the transgender and non-binary community, while raising awareness about the important work underway to create safer and more inclusive care environments.

Safe and inclusive access to care means committing to understanding the needs and existing barriers that trans and gender diverse people have faced – and continue to face – in the health system. TODV serves as an important reminder to continue advocating for our 2SLGBTQQIA+ community and empowering individuals to embrace their identities.

By sharing stories, education information, and resources, we play a part in a more informed community built on compassion and inclusivity; becoming allies and together creating a more equitable health system.
