Lakeridge Health

In Durham Region, Lakeridge Health, in collaboration with Ontario Tech University, is taking a significant step forward in the evolution of health care delivery with the launch of the Partnership for Advanced Technology in Health Care (PATH). PATH seeks to leverage #artificialintelligence (#AI) to enhance patient care and improve health outcomes for Durham Region residents. As Ontario faces increasing pressure to modernize health care in light of growing populations and evolving patient needs, health systems are looking for innovative ways to address these challenges and explore AI-driven technologies. PATH brings together Lakeridge Health's clinical expertise and Ontario Tech's research capabilities to explore how AI can address these critical challenges.
