Phiring up better long-term care with an app

An innovation arm of Providence Health Care has teamed up with the Centre for Digital Media (CDM) to create an app designed to enhance care and family engagement in Canadian long-term care homes.

The app, called Oasis Connect, was one of the winning pitches at Skunkworks: Hacking Aging that received funding and support from PHIR+E (Providence Health Innovation, Research + Engagement, pronounced “fire”) to help bring the solution to life.
