Nutrition and Food Services #RisingUp to Meet Evolving Needs of Patients
Ontario Shores and its Nutrition and Food Services (NFS) is #RisingUp to serve its community during the COVID-19 pandemic.

When it was identified that patients within the community were struggling with securing food, NFS jumped into action.

COVID-19: Remember Empathy when Judging Action of Others During Pandemic

The sun was shining, there was barely any wind, and some restrictions of quarantine were lifted. While most of us chose to stay at home and isolate ourselves in our own backyards, we saw many people flood to parks to escape the prisons of our homes and the awful winter weather we experienced in May.
My first initial reaction when I saw pictures of thousands of people in a Toronto park was to be angry and upset. But as always, I remembered again what I teach, try your best to have empathy for others, as we don’t always know their situation.
COVID-19: Anxiety of Returning to Society
