Today, Belinda Karahalios, MPP for Cambridge, was at Langs Community Health Centre on behalf of Christine Elliott, Deputy Premier and Minister of Health, to announce Cambridge North Dumfries Ontario Health Team as one of the first 24 teams in the province to implement a new model of organizing and delivering health care that better connects patients and providers in their communities to improve patient outcomes.
Traverse Independence as a brain injury provider is proud and excited to be a core partner in this initiative. As announced last Friday, the Guelph and Area OHT also received government approval. Busy and interesting times lie ahead for both OHTs and the people who are working towards implementation of their goals. Our CEO Toby Harris and our board of directors will have their work cut out for them as they participate in various committees that will shape the OHTs into effective and efficient health care collaborations.
