Telehealth

Picture
Telehealth is the use of information technology to connect community members to health care services at a distance. A high-speed, secure, video link is used to connect clients to health care providers at different locations in Manitoba. That means that if you need to be able to connect with specialists in Winnipeg or even Ottawa or Vancouver, you can make an appointment your doctor through Telehealth without ever having to travel outside Sagkeeng.

You are able to see, hear and talk to your care provider on a television screen and they will be able to see, hear, and talk to you. Blood pressure, listening to your chest, ear, nose and throat exams - all of these standard tests can be done by your doctor through Telehealth. So the next time you need to travel to Winnipeg to see a doctor, call and ask about using Telehealth.
