Odile Thiang, RN-PNP, is a paediatric nurse practitioner at Central Health. She started her career at Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto. Her commitment to serving marginalised communities lead her to work on the improvement of mental health care, as well as working with survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence, and vulnerable LGBTQ+ youth. In Hong Kong, she has focused her efforts on mental health and nursing education.

Isolating infected children puts medical well-being before mental health, ignores the long-term trauma of separation and deters families from seeking treatment in the first place. Hospitals must treat parents and guardians as essential care providers and offer rapid testing to enable them to stay with children.
