Early diagnosis and communication is crucial for our families -- decreasing stigma surrounding disability is essential for the highest quality of life for children and their families.
Associate Professor @ University of Toronto | Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine, Developmental Pediatrics. Director of Neonatal Follow-up Clinic Sunnybrook Health Science Centre.
New Publication: “Early Identification and Communication in Cerebral Palsy” Proud to share our latest article in Acta Paediatrica, highlights the essential role of early CP identification and effective communication strategies that support families and improve outcomes. Reviewing key tools and findings, this piece offers actionable insights for healthcare providers on fostering clear, compassionate, and collaborative conversations. By addressing ableism and maintaining a family-centered approach, we aim to empower families through every step of the diagnostic journey. #CerebralPalsy #EarlyIntervention #Pediatrics #NeonatalCare #HealthcareCommunication #Pediatrics #PatientCare

Thank you CergenX for this opportunity to share more about Hope for HIE's global advocacy efforts for HIE, and for all you are doing to change the trajectory for these amazing babies and their families!
“Hope is found in every story, and looks different for everyone—it is not narrowly defined by a particular outcome.” We were delighted to speak with a leading voice in the patient advocacy community, Betsy Pilon, about her work with Hope for HIE (Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy), her advice to families affected by HIE, and her thoughts on the future of AI and other emerging technologies in healthcare. Betsy Pilon is the Executive Director of Hope for HIE, a global patient advocacy and support nonprofit dedicated to improving the quality of life for children and families affected by neonatal and pediatric-acquired HIE through awareness, advocacy, education, research and support. A driving and positive force for change in the HIE community, Betsy has transformed the Foundation, expanding its reach from a 200-family Facebook group to a global community of over 10,000 families. Her work includes building strategic partnerships, advocating for resources and research support, and contributing to numerous healthcare committees while also authoring impactful publications and presenting at international conferences. Notably, HIE is a common cause of cerebral palsy, epilepsy, learning and attention difficulties, and hearing and vision impairments, making her advocacy vital to many communities. #HIE #PatientAdvocacy #MedTechInnovation
