FOUR HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS IN NORTH WEST ONTARIO CHOOSE TOTAL ORMED SOLUTION

EDMONTON, AB: Ormed is pleased to announce that the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre, St. Joseph’s Care Group, Nipigon District Memorial Hospital, and Manitouwadge General Hospital have signed an agreement to implement the full ORMED MIS™ software solution.

The referral area for these four organizations represents a geographic healthcare region the size of France. They employ leading-edge technology, provide hundreds of beds for acute care, complex continuing care, rehabilitation, mental health, and long term care, and service hundreds of thousands of demographically diverse patient visits every year.

“We chose ORMED MIS because it’s the complete solution,” says Bruce Sutton, CIO of Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre and St. Joseph’s Care Group. “The ability to immediately drill-down to the details will save our managers time and provide them the information they need to manage effectively. That process used to be very time-consuming. Now we will have something integrating in real-time with every other application in the system.”

Ormed’s mandate has been to create flexible, user-friendly software, allowing clients to re-engineer existing processes to make the best of their resources, even across multiple sites over large geographic distances.

Steve Caughers, Ormed’s Vice President of Sales, is pleased to help these four organizations meet their needs. “As our reputation continues to flourish in North America and recently in the Middle East, it’s fantastic to see ongoing success here at home. In these rather uncertain economic times we are seeing a shift towards efficiency as the top client priority. Fortunately, we’ve had that as our mandate all along,”
