Telehealth
As many people in Nunavut live in remote and isolated communities; the Government of Nunavut recognizes that tele-health can deliver a wide range of health care and social services to their citizens. At OHSNI promoting the use of tele-health is well established within our programs. In partnership with Nunavut, we strive to increase Tele-Health use for family consultations, professional teaching, clinical assessments, family visitations and administrative issues.
OHSNI does not own its own platform. We work in partnership with the local Ottawa hospital coordinators, the Ontario Tele-Health Network and the Baffin Regional Tele-Health coordinators and its administration.
