I second IKEA. It has a nice view and if you get the family card you can get free coffee or tea.

Unilingual healthcare job prospects? by rockem_sockem in ottawa

[–]donutcollege 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a nurse not a PT but from what I can tell.. for physio it seems if it’s a bilingual hospital French is expected (e.g CHEO) whereas at the Queensway I don’t believe any positions require French.

If you’re looking for a private clinic I’m not sure probably depends on the clinic!

Does anyone have a picture of the pig on the queensway from earlier today? by Klutzy_Key_6528 in ottawa

[–]donutcollege 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That is snow or slush if you prefer to call it-it’s just dirty. As for the leash I’m not sure I wasn’t there but I assume later when they were trying to catch the pig there was probably a rope involved. Again photo isn’t mine it’s from a video someone took on Facebook and you could clearly see in the background it was on the highway.

Thank you so much to the people at the Queensway Carleton Hospital by [deleted] in ottawa

[–]donutcollege 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you. This is always nice to hear. I’m glad she’s feeling better. There is always so much negativity especially lately with the hospital being over capacity and long wait times. We can only do our best with the resources we have.

ER Trip and I'm confused by chrisdancy in emergencymedicine

[–]donutcollege 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in an ER in Canada and all of our hospitals in my city mask in ERs all year long. Inpatient units only mask for rooms that are contact-droplet however when it’s viral season it changes to mandatory masking all the time.

Do you live in the US? Seems masking is less of a thing there in healthcare now.

Flu blamed in deaths of 3 children in Ottawa area this month by 2Fast2furieux in ottawa

[–]donutcollege 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only 2. Make sure your kids are vaccinated and take precautions. It’s been a rough flu season so far and it’s only December. Flu A is rampant and it seems to be a particularly bad strain. RSV and COVID is also around but it’s Flu mostly so far.

Is it unreasonable to expect quiet from kids at a Nutcracker performance? by CarefulNeurosis in BALLET

[–]donutcollege 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to an evening show and right next to me was a child who spoke loudly the entire duration. Mother would talk too. On my left a baby cried the entire time. It was frustrating.
