COver 2,800 donors gave almost $360,000 to the Foundation’s Christmas Angel Campaign for seven new automated medication cabinets needed throughout the Medicine, Surgery and Psychiatry Nursing Units at the Hospital. “My sincere thanks to everyone who supported the campaign,” said Torben Hawksbridge, Foundation Chair. “Donations are critical to having the best possible care available here.” Medications play a key role in the treatment and recovery of many patients. Every day the Hospital’s Pharmacy prepares over 1,000 medication orders. Ensuring each patient gets the right drug, at the right time, in the right dose, is a complex task involving doctors, pharmacy staff and nurses. “The new automated cabinets store up to 300 different medications and are integrated into Grey Bruce Health Services’ inside electronic patient records and Pharmacy Information System,” Registered Nurses Casey McMillan, left, and Megan Lawes working How you helped your said Dr. Brendan Mulroy, former Chief of Staff.

  • COSSARO Candidate V, T, E Species Evaluation Form for Grey Fox (Urocyon Cinereoargenteus)
    Ontario Species at Risk Evaluation Report for Gray Fox (Urocyon cinereoargenteus) Committee on the Status of Species at Risk in Ontario (COSSARO) Assessed by COSSARO as Threatened June 2016 Final Renard gris (Urocyon cinereoargenteus) Le renard gris est au Canada depuis des siècles. On le croyait vagabond ou présent de façon isolée, mais ses populations ont migré des États-Unis vers le Nord du Canada, ce qui semble contribuer à son maintient. De récentes données indiquent que deux populations se reproduiraient au Canada, soit à l’île Pelée et dans le Nord-Ouest de l’Ontario (Thunder Bay – rivière à la Pluie), et quelques spécimens ont été observés dans certaines parties du Sud de l’Ontario. La taille de la population du renard gris en Ontario serait bien en deçà de 250 adultes, ce qui lui vaut son statut d’espèce menacée. Les données ne permettent pas de déterminer si la population est en baisse dans la province. Le renard gris est très vulnérable à la prédation des coyotes, particulièrement là où la population de ces derniers est importante. Les populations des États-Unis sont généralement saines et stables, voire en hausse, sauf en Ohio, où elles semblent décliner. L’espèce est visée par la chasse dans tous les États américains adjacents. Le renard gris répond aux critères du CDSEPO d’une espèce en voie de disparition – notamment la très petite taille de sa population (D1) –, mais il est tout de même considéré comme une espèce menacée vu la possibilité de l’incidence salvatrice des populations saines et stables des États américains adjacents.
