Clients at Ontario’s Community Health Centres (CHCs) and Aboriginal Health Access Centres (AHACs) will soon benefit from state-of-the-art electronic medical record (EMR) technology. The Association of Ontario Health Centres (AOHC) today announced the selection of Nightingale On Demand as the new EMR to support client care at CHCs and AHACs across Ontario.

At an international conference held in Toronto June 9th and 10th, policymakers, politicians and healthcare leaders from around the world shared their ideas on how to improve health and increase the sustainability of healthcare systems by enabling many more people to access the Community Health Centre model of care.

AOHC's member centres are showing "Every One Matters." with special events during Community Health Week, April 25-29th.

Ontarians served by Community Health Centres (CHCs) will soon have access to a new state-of-the-art electronic medical record (EMR) system funded by eHealth Ontario, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, as well as the CHCs themselves. The system will provide a powerful new tool for the 3,100 members of CHCs’ interprofessional teams who will be using the system.

It’s time health care decision makers and communities across Ontario learned more about Ontario’s Community Health Centres. Community Health Centres (CHCs) are one of Ontario’s best kept secrets. When Ontario’s politicians, healthcare decision makers and local communities move forward maximizing CHCs full potential, Ontario will be much better equipped to address one of our most urgent health issues --- the great health divide.
