UPDATE: H1N1 for Health Care Professionals
Guidelines from he Ministry of Health
Directive
"Ontario has been experiencing very low levels of influenza activity since the beginning of January. At this time, it is unlikely that anyone presenting with an influenza-like illness would have pandemic influenza. Health care providers are encouraged to consult their public health unit and view the Ontario Influenza Bulletin to obtain regular updates on the status of influenza in their community, available at: http://www.healthgov.on.ca/en/ccom/flu/h1n1/pro/flu_bulletin.aspx."

Deactivation of H1N1 Response Activities
With reduced levels of influenza activity in Ontario, the ministry has taken steps to wind down the response activities regarding Pandemic Influenza.

The ministry will continue to monitor influenza activity and will be prepared to reactivate response measures if required.

I want to express my sincere thanks to Alert/Best Nursing and Home Care and to you for joining us as a sponsor for the 2010 Hospice Palliative Care Conference! Your contribution is greatly appreciated. I’m sorry that I didn’t get to meet you, but I hope that you did have the chance to speak with one of our committee members or our staff that was floating throughout the exhibition hall.

I hope that the conference was a good experience for your team. If you have any feedback on what was good, what could be improved or anything else about the conference experience, please do let me know.
