Winner: Solutions - East Toronto's Health Collaborative

Project: Community Referrals by EMS



Solutions is a voluntary network of 15 East Toronto Health Providers that provides a community support option to paramedics when deciding to transport adults to hospital emergency departments of address their immediate needs in their homes.

The program was originally proposed by Toronto EMS to help better connect patients with the services they need directly.   Key benefits include better patient care and response and less calls to 911 and emergency visits.
