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/

Today is 🩷 🩷 – an opportunity to wear pink in recognition of Manitoba’s diverse health care workforce that provides each of our patient populations with compassionate, professional care every day.

As health care providers, compassion is at the heart of everything that we do. It’s built into the fibre of every task, every patient, every appointment. And it’s an important foundation that will allow us to build a health care environment that is safe for all staff, patients, and Manitobans. 🩷

Sharedhealthmb recognizes gender diversity and strives to make our health care spaces inclusive to all. When our colleagues, patients and community feel safe and respected, it improves quality of care, experience, and, ultimately, patient outcome. 🩷

📣 April 2 is Autism Awareness Day! 📣

👇Learn About Project Search at HSC

Project SEARCH is a workforce alternative that partners with organizations to empower individuals with intellectual disabilities and autism through valuable work experience. Together, these opportunities allow students to grow skills and experience on-site training in professional settings with a goal of longer-term employment.

Health Sciences Centre is a proud partner of Project SEARCH and has been providing valuable on-site training and work experience since 2016.

Project SEARCH, in partnership with SCE LifeWorks, allows HSC Winnipeg to increase employment opportunities and continue to build meaningful relationships within the community. Creating a more inclusive environment through the program enables staff to better understand those with disabilities and helps patients and visitors see themselves in the type of care and services available at HSC Winnipeg.

Project SEARCH promotes accessibility and inclusion conversations within the workplace. When a student is placed within a department, their experience may highlight physical, ideological and systemic barriers that become opportunities to identify strategies that will support student success and improve access for others.

HSC is proud to be working with Project SEARCH to increase employment opportunities, promote inclusive work environments and reduce barriers to employment.

Our Story

More than 8,000 staff, physicians and volunteers care for patients at HSC Winnipeg. Highly-skilled interdisciplinary teams provide complex, specialist (“tertiary”) acute care, including diagnostic, outpatient and inpatient services to adults and children across Manitoba, north-western Ontario and Nunavut.

HSC is a Shared Health facility, and is Manitoba’s provincial tertiary centre for trauma, transplants, burns, neurosciences, complex cancer care and pediatric care. Every clinical hospital-based service available in the province is offered at HSC, with the exception of cardiac surgery and eye surgery. This means the majority of Manitobans’ tertiary care is provided here, regardless of which community our patients call home.

HSC is also a teaching hospital, formally affiliated with the University of Manitoba and other post-secondary institutions. Students learn from us at the bedside or in the lab, and many of our staff teach and conduct research at these institutions.
