It's #FirstResponderDay in #Ontario. To all the first responders who run towards emergencies instead of running away from them, thank you for keeping us safe.

HRI is recruiting #FireFighters, #Police, correctional and probation officers, #Paramedics, emergency dispatchers, and #Nurses in Ontario for an online experimental trial of Goal Management Training. Here’s how to participate: https://bit.ly/2P0jurN

Dr. Sara Jahnke (Center for Fire, Rescue & EMS Health Research) and Dr. Denise Smith wrote about "Long-COVID" that occurs in 10% of infected patients. "While many COVID long-haulers, as they have been called, experience improving health after months of illness, it is often not a steady improvement, with multiple bouts of concerning symptoms, such as extreme fatigue, shortness of breath, and headache. "

As we remember the workers who have lost their life, been injured, or become sick on the job, we also salute those working on the front lines today. We all have a role to play, especially now, in keeping workplaces safe for everyone.
