The National Day of Persons with Disabilities is observed on December 3, 2025, and is dedicated to promoting awareness, understanding, and acceptance of people with disabilities. The theme for 2025 is "fostering disability inclusive societies for advancing social progress". Adults with disabilities too often encounter barriers to healthcare and full participation in their communities, limiting their independence, opportunities, and wellbeing. The Hamilton Family Health Team believes that when barriers are removed people with disabilities are empowered to participate fully, and communities thrive.

Today is National Physician Assistant (PA) Day! We're highlighting all of the incredible Physician Assistants who serve our Hamilton community and beyond. 🎉

PAs are highly skilled medical professionals who collaborate with physicians to diagnose, treat, prescribe, and assist in surgery, enhancing care across every setting. PAs have a positive impact on many aspects of health care, from emergency room wait times, to access to primary care, the quality of seniors care, and access to health care in rural communities.

Thank you to all PAs, working within HFHT practices and throughout Canada, for all you do to serve your community every day.

November 16-22 is Digital Health Week - and to close out the week, we're shining the spotlight on our Quality Improvement (QI) Team. They're the small-but-mighty group behind safer, smoother, more patient-centred care and operations.

Every day, this team leans into complexity so that care can feel simple for patients and providers. They:
📈 Turn data into better care: analyzing EMR and practice-level data to understand demand, capacity, and access, and helping teams redesign schedules and workflows.
🙌 Support day-to-day operations: co-designing data dashboards, streamlining activity reporting, and supporting or leading projects and initiatives across the organization, at HUB sites, and within practices.
✅ Improve patient experience: refreshing patient experience surveys, tracking feedback, and partnering with Patient Experience Advisors so real voices drive real change.
💪 Strengthen equity and access: using data and community insights to focus on patients who face barriers to care and supporting initiatives like attachment and social medicine hubs.
💻 Advance digital tools: helping teams get the most out of online booking, eReferral, and other digital tools so clinicians spend more time with patients and less time wrestling with systems.

Thank you for your analytical, data-driven mindset; your strong sense of collaboration; your belief that everything is “figure-outable”; and for always keeping the best interests of providers, staff, and the people we serve at the centre.

Last week, members of our Hamilton Family Health Team leadership team participated in the KAIROS Blanket Exercise, developed by .canada and facilitated by the incredible . We were warmly welcomed into De dwa da dehs nye>s (), who graciously hosted us in their space for this exercise.

Afterwards, the team described the way our hearts, minds and eyes were opened to the truth of colonization on Turtle Island, the ongoing ways that Indigenous communities are still targeted by systemic oppression, and how we can participate in reconcili-action as we move forward in our work and lives.

We are incredibly grateful to Teresa and Sarah from for creating such a powerful and healing space for us. It is an experience that will stay with each of us and ripple outwards into how we care for each other and our community. We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to Janet Gasparelli and the team at De dwa da dehs nye>s for hosting us in their space and for their continued partnership as we serve our community together.

It's National Nurse Practitioner Week! 🎉

Join us in celebrating Nurse Practitioners (NPs), at the Hamilton Family Health Team and across Canada, who make a difference every day with compassionate, expert care. As primary and specialty care leaders, NPs are essential in creating a healthier, more accessible healthcare system for everyone.

NPs are highly educated healthcare professionals with foundational training and education in nursing. NPs play a unique and complementary role in the healthcare system, practicing autonomously while integrating advanced clinical knowledge, diagnostic skills, and specialized expertise. Rooted in whole-person and patient-centered care, NPs consider the social determinants of health to provide comprehensive and individualized patient care.

Thank you to all Nurse Practitioners for the care you provide to your community every day.

Today, we remember all of Canada's veterans, honouring their courage, selflessness and sacrifice.

We will all be taking two minutes of silence to remember and reflect on the sacrifice of all our veterans, including racialized soldiers who overcame the additional barriers of discrimination and often went unrecognized, and the more than 12,000 Indigenous peoples who served our country for more than 200 years despite not being afforded basic human rights and being subject to the conditions of colonial governance.

Did you know we offer two free health education groups for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community? The Hamilton Family Health team recognizes, along with major health care organizations in Canada and around the world, that gender affirming care is healthcare and that all members of Hamilton's 2SLGBTQIA+ community deserve to feel safe, respected, and heard when accessing care.

The Gender-Affirming Care Workshops for adults (19+), in collaboration with Queens Square Family Health Team, offer participants evidenced-based information from healthcare providers on both masculinizing and feminizing Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).

Our eight-session AFFIRM group, in collaboration with Compass and the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board, provides 2SLGBTQIA+ youth ages 11-18 with a supportive space to explore identity, manage emotions, and build confidence. Sign up for our waitlist to be notified once new dates for AFFIRM are announced.

You can find more information about both here: https://buff.ly/5CrQ3PA

If you need immediate support, you can reach out to the Trans Lifeline, a peer support service by and for trans people, at 1-877-330-6366. 2SLGBTQIA+ youth (ages 29 and under) can also contact the LGBT Youth Line Sunday-Friday from 4:00-9:30pm by calling 1-800-268-9688 or texting 1-647-694-4275.
