You're delirious! It's not just a saying - Delirium is a real medical condition that affects many older adults after surgery or an illness. Even though it's upsetting when your loved one becomes suddenly confused, the good news is that delirium can be prevented and treated fairly simply, and most people recover. Today is world delirium awareness day. Learn more so you can spot it and start treatment quickly: https://bit.ly/4lo3o5Z

Our Hospital Elder Life Program (HELP) has been supporting patients at risk for delirium at Juravinski Hospital and Hamilton General Hospital since 2004. More recently, a modified version of HELP has been expanded to West Lincoln Memorial Hospital and Satellite Health Facility in partnership with a team of Recreational Therapists.

Thank you to Minister Neil Lumsden and MPP Monica Ciriello for your engagement, curiosity, and genuine interest during your visit last week to our ALS Clinic – one of five multidisciplinary care and research centres in the Ontario ALS Program that supports around 1,400 Ontarians living with ALS. Our clinicians and staff were proud to showcase the innovative, compassionate care we deliver, and to highlight the impact that coordinated, multidisciplinary support has on patients and families navigating an ALS diagnosis. This visit reinforces the importance of ongoing collaboration in advancing this specialized care.

Earlier this week, we welcomed Deputy Minister Zanotti, Associate Deputy Minister Cureton, and team members of Ontario Community and Social Services to our Ron Joyce Children’s Health Centre.

This was an incredible opportunity to showcase the innovative work happening across our programs, highlight new possibilities for integration and system partnerships, and share the real‑world impact our teams have on children, youth, and families, which is our inspiration to continue to push boundaries in care, collaboration, and innovation.

We thank the Ministry for their ongoing support and engagement as we work together to drive meaningful improvements here in Hamilton and across Ontario.

Skip the admission. Our President and CEO Tracey MacArthur talks with our physician-in-chief Khalid Azzam about the new urgent medicine day unit at Hamilton General Hospital.

Yesterday, we were honoured to welcome Canada’s Minister of Health, Marjorie Michel, and MPs Lisa Hepfner and John-Paul Danko to the Juravinski Hospital and Cancer Centre.

From pioneering stem cell and CAR-T therapies to our mobile cancer screening bus that serves our region, we showcased our national leadership in cancer care and how we continue to translate discovery into life-saving care for patients across the country.

The visit also explored Canada’s only dedicated oncology rehab program, housed in the hospital’s oldest area which is slated to be rebuilt. This underscored the importance of the Rebuild Juravinski Hospital project and the impact of federal investment in renewing aged health infrastructure.
