Technology Overcomes Geography (Toronto, Canada)

This video is an updated one to the original that was recorded in 2005/2006.

Want to know more about Canada's public health care system? This inspiring video by the Health Council of Canada (a national non-profit monitoring and reporting agency) looks at the amazing results of a Toronto program providing routine follow-up care using video and telephone technology. Patients faced with a chronic disease such as congestive heart failure can monitor vital conditions such as oxygen levels without leaving their homes. While this allows much more efficiency for care providers, it's home sweet home for patients.
