The Garry Hurvitz Centre for Community Mental Health at SickKids Selects VitalHub to implement its TREAT Client Information System to Enhance Client Care
TORONTO, July 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — VitalHub Corp. (the “Company” or “VitalHub”) (TSX:VHI) (OTCQX:VHIBF) is excited to announce a partnership with The Garry Hurvitz Centre for Community Mental Health at SickKids (GH-CCMH), a leading child and youth mental health centre in Toronto, to implement their TREAT Client Information & Care Coordination software. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in advancing client care and streamlining operations at GH-CCMH.
Following a comprehensive RFP process, GH-CCMH has entered into a five-year agreement with VitalHub to license their TREAT software. With a reputation for excellence in children and youth mental health support services, GH-CCMH aims to enhance their services further by leveraging the power of this integrated electronic health record system.
The decision to adopt VitalHub’s TREAT software comes as a result of GH-CCMH’s commitment to providing exceptional care to their clients. By replacing their mostly paper-based system, they will benefit from a comprehensive case management, and care coordination platform that supports the entire client journey. From intake through to discharge, TREAT will support seamless and integrated care across a range of essential programs including mental health case management, prevention and early intervention services, individual and family therapy services, and intensive services for children and youth.
“We are delighted to collaborate with The Garry Hurvitz Centre for Community Mental Health at SickKids in their mission to deliver world-class mental health and related support services,” stated Dan Matlow, CEO at VitalHub Corp.
“This relationship exemplifies our commitment to ensuring that our clients and their families have access to high quality service that is enabled by modern digital solutions. By leveraging TREAT’s capabilities, we will optimize operations, streamline workflows, and ultimately improve the overall client experience,” said Neill Carson, Executive Director, The Garry Hurvitz Centre for Community Mental Health at SickKids.
