On Friday, September 5, Charles Ailey travelled to Sioux Lookout to meet with K-Net staff. Charles is developing a regional strategy to support the successful implementation and operation of the telehealth and teleradiology initiatives being undertaken by the NORTH Network. The meetings with K-Net staff involved discussions around the technical requirements and support services needed to make these initiatives work in the remote First Nations across the region.
During his visit to the K-Net office, Charles was able to discuss some of the challenges affecting Fort Severn with Mel Orecklin, the Band's Co-manager.
