Your Health: A Plan for Connected and Convenient Care
Ontario introduces Your Health: A Plan for Connected and Convenient Care
The government recognizes that too many Ontarians are waiting too long to get an appointment or surgery, having to travel too far to get care and spending too much time trying to navigate our health care system.
To change the status quo, this government is releasing Your Health: A Plan for Convenient and Connected Care. This plan focuses on providing people with a better, more convenient health care experience closer to home, while taking action to reduce wait times and grow the health care workforce across the province.
The plan lays out a broad series of initiatives under three pillars to deliver connected and convenient care in hospital emergency rooms, long-term care homes, community settings such as pharmacies, community organizations and doctors’ offices, and care delivered right at home.
Key initiatives of the plan are being implemented immediately as the province takes action to address pressing issues, while other changes will take time but are still important to improving the care people receive.
Your Health: A Plan for Connected and Convenient Care will put Ontarians back in charge of their health, making it easier to navigate care at every stage of their life, providing more ways to receive care, and ensuring that people will be able to get the care they need faster, when it can have the greatest impact to their health.
