“On September 17, in honour of International IT Professionals Day, we celebrated our Digital Health teams at Sinai Health. Every day, they ensure our clinical systems run smoothly including advancing the capabilities of our electronic patient record, secure our data and protect the organization from cybersecurity threats, maintain and troubleshoot server and device issues and implement new technologies.

A big thank you to our Digital Health teams for streamlining daily operations, enhancing patient care and driving innovative health-care solutions across our hospitals!”
