UBC CPD: BC Virtual Health Grand Rounds: Hybrid Health Network (HHN) for First Nations & Rural Communities: RTVS 2.0

Join Dr. John Pawlovich and Dr. Kendall Ho for this quarterly session as they share exciting updates and new developments in the ongoing evolution of Real-Time Virtual Support (RTVS).

RTVS is a province-wide virtual support network that connects rural health-care providers — including physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, midwives, residents, and first responders — with experienced clinicians for real-time advice by phone or video. It supports emergency, urgent, and non-urgent care in communities with limited on-site resources, helping ensure patients receive timely, high-quality care close to home.

RTVS brings together virtual care and local services to bridge health-care gaps in rural and First Nations communities and is a partnership between the First Nations Health Authority, the Rural Coordination Centre of BC, the BC Ministry of Health, and UBC Digital Emergency Medicine.
