ConnectMyHealth
What is Digital Health?
Digital health is transforming the landscape of healthcare in Canada. Care providers can now use technology and automation to treat patients virtually, access patient health records sooner and consult more efficiently with other providers. Patients are now able to have more control over their health journey and access information in real-time.
This improvement in care delivery and efficiency is why the Brantford Brant Norfolk OHT is continuously working towards a more digitally enabled healthcare system in our community.
What is a patient portal?
A patient portal is a secure online website or app that gives you convenient, 24-hour access to your personal health information from anywhere with an Internet connection. Using a secure username and password, you can view your hospital health information electronically from participating organizations/sites across South Western Ontario.
