Dear Anne,

Thanks for the excellent meeting at the Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario's (RNAO) home office on Jan. 25, 2017. Amongst the items we discussed was RNs' ability to initiate psychotherapy. As we have expressed on several occasion in the past, RNAO is requesting the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO) reconsider its approach to the initiation of psychotherapy.

Dear Minister Hoskins,

I am writing you about a campaign that RNAO endorses and for which we would like your support.

As a physician who has worked with refugees you have witnessed firsthand the horrible impact when people cannot get access to the health care they need. As a humanitarian committed to health equity, your work demonstrates a commitment to ensuring that all people receive the services they need to be healthy and well.

Dear Minister Hoskins,

The Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO) recently had the privilege of meeting with the Hon. David Orazietti, Minister of Community Safety and Correctional Services, about ways to improve health outcomes and improve human rights within correctional facilities. Minister Orazietti suggested we speak to you about these ideas to address the severe health inequities affecting some of Ontario's most marginalized people.

Dear Ed,

Many thanks for inviting us to speak with you on October 19. We had an excellent conversation and as requested we are following up in writing.

On October 7, Health Minister Hoskins released an open letter to you, seeking a value assessment of Ontario’s e-health assets and recommendations on maximizing the value of those assets “by improving how care is delivered, the patient experience in interacting with the health care system and, indirectly, through the economic value that is created for Ontario's economy.” You were approached in your capacity as the Premier’s Business Advisor and Chair of the Advisory Council on Government Assets.
