The Ontario Telemedicine Network (OTN) is one of the largest telemedicine networks in the world. Using two-way video-conferencing, OTN provides secure digital access to care for patients in hundreds of other health care locations across the province. In addition, distance education for health care professionals and patients is also available.
The Community Health Centres of Northumberland has been fortunate to acquire four OTN systems, providing a site for many local residents to attend consultations with specialists in other locations (such as Toronto and Sudbury) without having to make travel arrangements. Local agencies are also able to utilize our OTN equipment for training opportunities, minimizing travel time and costs.
