Do you know when your Driver’s License and Passport expire?
Check ‘em if you’re not sure. Like now.
Just watched while airport staff kindly but firmly did not allow a passenger to board their flight with a driver’s license that expired 6 months ago.
The chrome door handle on the inside of a bathroom door. The lock mechanism is unclear. So someone has added stickers saying pooping alone and pooping with friends.
Inside the ward staff bathroom. You know this was a nurse, right?! 😂

Republican Party…. What have you done?
I always knew what kind of doctor I wanted to be.
I was 40 years old when I started medical school after a career in health ed & social work. That experience led me to caring for some of our most marginalized, neighbours: people experiencing homelessness, mental illness & addiction.

As a healthcare provider working with people experiencing homelessness, building trust is the first and most important step I can take.

Awesome collection.
Addiction Family doc on Vancouver Island here.
A doctor’s prescription pad upon which 1 unit affordable housing is written.
Homelessness is an independent driver of chronic pain.
Caused by rough sleeping, injury & recurrent infection.
Exacerbated by victimization, trauma, stigma + subtherapeutic analgesia in healthcare.
No wonder folks develop substance use disorders.
If only I could prescribe housing.
