Enhancing Primary Health Care through Telemedicine in Etelä-Pohjanmaa Region

The Etelä-Pohjanmaa Hospital District faces challenges in optimizing primary health care services across small units. This initiative focuses on integrating telemedicine to improve service delivery, enhance collaboration with health centers, and ensure efficient use of resources while addressing long distances between healthcare providers. By leveraging clinical experts and innovative technology, we aim to elevate patient care, streamline processes, and foster a culture of continuous improvement within the healthcare system. Your support is vital for this transformation.
