Digital Health

Digital Health enables a more connected health care system. Nipissing Wellness OHT is ensuring local innovation and alignment with provincial digital strategy. For patients, families, and caregivers, this means having options in how and when you navigate the healthcare system, access care (in-person or virtually), manage your health status, and view your personal health information. We are currently working on a roadmap that will act as a guide to provide a long-term vision on how digital health can support the community.

eHealth Centre of Excellence

The eHealth Centre of Excellence is a not-for-profit organization that assists clinicians, healthcare organizations, and  Ontario Health  Teams across the province with the meaningful and sustainable adoption of digital health tools. In addition to our change management and implementation support,  we offer program planning expertise,  as well as the design and customization of innovative solutions.

Our current suite of digital health tools includes, but is not limited to: eConsult and eReferral (through the Ontario eServices Program), virtual care, patient forms, online appointment booking, Evidence2Practice tools and coaching for primary care electronic medical records (EMRs),  and automated solutions. We also apply a co-design approach to tool development through our Healthcare Experience and Advancement Lab (HEAL).
