    Abstract This article explores the increasing impact of natural disasters on healthcare leadership and disaster preparedness, particularly in Fort McMurray, Alberta. It underscores the importance of building disaster resilience in healthcare, distinguishing between emergencies, disasters, and catastrophes, and advocating for a multi-dimensional resilience approach. The need for robust electronic communication channels and comprehensive family-oriented evacuation plans, considering family and pet safety, is emphasized. The protection of vulnerable patients, the importance of resilient healthcare infrastructure, and dedicated protective equipment for first responders are also discussed. The article highlights the critical role of government support in flood prevention and disaster preparedness. Through the experiences of Fort McMurray, the article demonstrates the necessity of comprehensive disaster planning and the crucial role of healthcare systems in rapid recovery and adaptation in the face of disasters. It aims to contribute to an improved understanding and strategies for managing such critical situations in the future.

    Abstract Problem addressed: Family medicine is a vital part of health care in Canada. The decline in numbers of new family physicians being trained bodes ill for a sustainable and efficacious health care system. We need to recruit young people more effectively into careers in primary care. Early outreach to high-school students is one approach that holds promise.
    Objective of program: To provide high-school students with exposure to and appreciation for careers in medicine, particularly family medicine.
    Program description: Family medicine residents in the University of Alberta's Rural Alberta North Program initiated an outreach project that was implemented in rural and regional high schools in northern Alberta. The program consisted of visits to high schools by residents who gave interactive presentations introducing medicine as a career. The regional hospital subsequently hosted a career day involving medical and paramedical professionals, such as physicians, pharmacists, nurses, and physical and occupational therapists.
    Conclusion: Physicians' visits to high-school students could be an effective way to increase interest in careers in rural family medicine.

    Abstract Many wireless devices in common use today are worn either on or in close proximity to the body. Among them are a growing number of wrist-mounted devices designed for applications such as activity or vital-signs monitoring, typically using Bluetooth technology to communicate with external devices. Here, we use a tissue-mimicking phantom material in conjunction with anechoic chamber and network analyzer testing to investigate how antenna propagation patterns in one such device are influenced by the electrical properties of the human wrist. A microstrip antenna module is mounted onto phantom material of various geometries, and the resulting voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), input impedance, and azimuth radiation pattern are recorded in both free space and real-world environments. The results of this study demonstrate how the high permittivity values of human tissue (ε(r) ≈ 16) affect the design parameters of microstrip antennas. A simulation environment using Sonnet EM software was used to further analyze the high dielectric effects of biological tissue on RF propagation.
