We recognize the comfort and emotional support a beloved pet can provide during a hospital stay.

While pet visitation is generally discouraged, exceptions may be considered in certain circumstances. If a patient would like to request a visit from their pet, there is a process that must be followed before the visit can take place. This includes advance approval, scheduling, proof of required immunizations, and other health and safety requirements to help ensure a safe and comfortable environment for all.

To learn more about the pet visitation process and requirements, go to bluewaterhealth.ca ➡️Patients & Visitors ➡️ Visiting a Patient

Please note: These requirements apply to pet visitation only and do not apply to service animals.

Summer is made for getting outside and staying active, but a few simple precautions can help prevent serious injuries.

We're resharing these important summer safety tips from Dr. Woodcroft, Emergency Physician at Bluewater Health.

In this video, Dr. Woodcroft shares advice on preventing injuries involving:
🚲 Bicycles – Wear a helmet every ride. In Ontario, helmets are required for anyone under 18.
🏍️ ATVs, dirt bikes and motorized scooters – These vehicles can pose serious risks, especially for children. ATVs and dirt bikes are not recommended for children under 16.

Take a few minutes to watch and help keep your family safe this summer. ☀️

Yesterday, we welcomed second-year Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry - Western University students, Emma and Saismetha, to Bluewater Health as part of the MedLINCs program.

Their day began with a hands-on learning experience alongside the Indigenous Navigation Services team, creating traditional medicine pouches while learning through storytelling about Indigenous cultures, traditions, and the significance of the four sacred medicines in Indigenous healing. In the afternoon, they shadowed the Indigenous Navigation Services team on patient units.

This week, they will visit local Indigenous community health centres, and gain valuable insight into culturally informed care in rural and Indigenous medicine.

We are grateful to the Indigenous Navigation Services team for sharing their knowledge and helping shape the next generation of physicians through connection, culture, and lived experience.

Sometimes, the smallest gestures leave the biggest impression. 🎶

After meeting a patient who mentioned how much he missed playing the guitar, summer co-op student Kodie brought her ukulele to the hospital the next day and played a few songs just for him. Before long, other patients gathered to listen, turning a simple act of kindness into a special moment of connection and joy.

Thank you, Kodie, for reminding us that compassionate care comes in many forms. 💙
