Action Series of Patient Stories

The Health Links philosophy addresses those patients with multiple, complex conditions. It involves many people working to coordinate care between the hospital, the family doctor, the long-term care home, community organizations and others and results in patients receiving better, more coordinated care.

Our LINKS Navigation Clinic incorporates this philosophy and helps navigate patients between the health care system and the social services system. Successful navigation can help reduce the burden of stress on patients as well as the burden of cost on our health care system.  Perhaps the greatest testimonial for the incredible work that is being done can be heard directly from our patients and their families.

To document this, the Barrie Community Health Links and the Barrie and Community Family Health Team have produced a series of patient story videos entitled “Health Links in Action”.
