Poplar Hill First Nation hosts Canada Health Inforway representatives and KOTM
Poplar Hill First Nation leaders graciously hosted a visit by Canada Health Infoway (CHI) guests Terry Moore and Lucia DiPascale.
Canada Health Infoway has been working with KO Telemedicine on a number of projects and wanted to come see for themselves the work that is happening in the communities.
Poplar Hill provided our guests with boiled duck and wild meat soup which was much appreciated.
The Poplar Hill Community Telemedicine Coordinator, Susan Owen, provided a tour of the community and did a "live" telemedicine demo connecting with the Keewaywin First Nation Health Centre.
The CHI guests were very impressed and are supportive of a proposal to explore how to bring community based Telemedicine services as a priority to other First Nations communities in Ontario.
