<h3 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">Integrating Digital Health and Virtual Care  </h3>



<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">Achievement: </h2>



<h3 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading">Increased daily appointments and after-hours access with platform that incorporated EMR </h3>



<p> With COVID-19 restrictions in place, our team turned to virtual care to improve patient access. Healthcare organizations across the region realized that during the pandemic, after-hours access was going to be impacted as walk-in clinics reduced hours and patients hesitated to seek in-person care in acute care settings, due to the risk of COVID-19 exposure. This resulted in our patients expressing the need for increased after-hours access to care and drove the us to create an innovative, sustainable solution to provide after-hours access. </p>



<p>We couldn&#8217;t have accomplished this success without the feedback from our patients and the hard work and dedication from our entire team.</p>



<p>For further information on this achievement click <a href="https://www.afhto.ca/sites/default/files/2020-10/AFHTO_2020%20Profile_Theme2Winner-FINAL.pdf">HERE</a></p>
