Front-line nurses' union says that new CIHI study tells an alarming story

About 6,000 nurses in Nova Scotia have reached a two-year tentative agreement that would provide them wage increases.

Nurse leaders from the Canadian Federation of Nurses Unions (CFNU) and the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) met with Provincial Health Ministers last Friday to highlight the importance of establishing a culture of safety for frontline workers.

Alberta Health and Alberta Blue Cross (ABC) has announced a high-level agreement-in-principle with the Alberta Pharmacists Association (RxA) that will be finalized over the next several months.

Investigation of supposed "100% natural treatment" finds company uses fake addresses, lies about ingredients, may not even exist.

Agreement-in-principle comes into effect next spring and includes four years of funding, changes to dispensing fees and updated compensation for pharmacy services.
