A 20,000-Step Journey to Knee Health
Walking program aids women in her surgery and recovery
She could have taken up meditation; she could have relied on pharmaceuticals.
But Roxy Goudy had her own prescription for how to ease the pain in her arthritic left knee – walk. And not just any ol’ walk in the park.
The 65-year-old personable wife, mom, grandmother to four grandchildren and health-care aide from Balmoral-Selkirk, Man. developed her own walking program that would have left many others faltering at the start line.
Concordia Launches the Patel Simulated Learning Centre
Life-threatening events can happen unexpectedly and we will be ready for it. Given the increasing amount of information that staff must know and the limited opportunity for care providers to encounter urgent clinical events, innovative approaches to teaching, practicing, and developing skills to manage emergencies are necessary.
Concordia is establishing a dedicated state-of-the-art Simulation Learning Lab for all care providers, including Urgent Care physicians, Medical/Nursing Students, physicians and Clinical Assistants, Nurses, Respiratory therapists, and others. The centre will enable staff to detect deterioration and manage cardiac arrests and other emergencies.
