Our vision for health care in Vaughan, for the
decades to come, is centred on being the integrated model of care
for all of Ontario – the VAUGHAN HEALTH CAMPUS OF CARE.
Our vision for Vaughan Health includes a CAMPUS
OF CARE comprised of a COMMUNITY HOSPITAL fully integrated with
a PARALLEL COMMUNITY SERVICES NETWORK which includes a wellness
centre, family health team and long term care services as well
as other providers.
- INNOVATION will be an important planning principle
during the development phase. The Vaughan Health Campus of Care
will operate on the leading edge of innovation that is:
- INTEGRATED with services and facilities both
within and beyond Vaughan Health through new service delivery
models, partnerships and supportive technologies to ensure seamless
service delivery and service excellence,
- E-ENABLED through new and emerging information
and clinical technologies to facilitate provider collaboration,
client engagement and service efficiency and effectiveness,
- Focused on WELLNESS, PREVENTION and HEALTH
PROMOTION to keep individuals as healthy as possible and,
- Supportive of Ontario’s TRANSFORMATION
agenda to ensure timely access to integrated and client-centred
health services.
PARTNERSHIPS will be forged between Vaughan Health,
the community it serves and other providers and stakeholders.
Vaughan Health will be the first health care facility to be designed
and developed in partnership with the Local Health Integration
Network. The new health care facility will support collaboration
between providers within and beyond Vaughan Health. Other key
stakeholders will also be invited to shape Vaughan Health - the
University of Toronto given its leadership in health care related
research and education and York University given its growing health
sciences program, a program that emphasizes promoting wellness,
not just treating illness.
