Videoconferencing
OTN is one of the largest live two-way videoconferencing networks in the world. Health care professionals use OTN to provide access to care for patients through every hospital and hundreds of other health care locations across the province. In addition to clinical care, we facilitate the delivery of distance education and meetings.
Benefits of using OTN include:
- Expanding patient and learner access.
- Eliminating distance and time barriers.
- Reducing travel and costs.
Currently, OTN supports videoconferencing for three main applications:
Clinical Telemedicine
- Expand patient access to diagnosis and treatment.
- Refer patients or see patients as if you were in the room.
Distance Education
- Participate in Rounds and other accredited continuing health education at every hospital and hundreds of other sites across Ontario.
- Collaborate with your peers.
- Access thousands of events annually and register using the OTN online Events Calendar.
Meetings
- Avoid travel expenses and reduce your carbon footprint.
- Connect with your colleagues locally, regionally or provincially.
