At Good Caring Canada, we believe that the most complete and accurate understanding of care in this country comes from the individuals who experience it directly. Whether you are a patient, caregiver, or healthcare professional, our first-hand observations can make a meaningful contribution to public understanding and accountability.
If you have witnessed conditions, events, or trends within hospitals, long-term care homes, clinics, or community settings—whether challenging, commendable, or concerning—we invite you to share them with us.
What You May Share
We welcome clear, factual observations that reflect the lived realities of care environments. Examples may include:
- Wait times at emergency departments, walk-in medical clinics, or specialist appointments
- Facility conditions, such as cleanliness, maintenance issues, or safety hazards within care settings
- Positive examples of exceptional care, program effectiveness, or staff compassion
- Service gaps, including equipment shortages, staffing concerns, or lack of access to timely care
- Community patterns or recurring issues affecting the delivery or quality of care
Submissions do not need to be lengthy or formal. A short description, image, or simple factual account can provide valuable insight.
