Specifically one that would allow us to support all of the programs that we provide for the community, so we decided to speak with our peers in Ontario and that led to the choice of TREAT,” said Mary Davis, CEO of NMHHSS. “Following a review of other solutions, we determined VitalHub’s TREAT system was best suited to supporting our large multi-program and facility system integration needs. We look forward to our partnership with the VitalHub team.”“We’re seeing a trend of regional consolidation and amalgamation of community mental health agencies across Ontario,” said Dan Matlow, CEO of VitalHub Corp. “Along with these amalgamations comes the need for robust EHRs that can provide a single platform for many different programs to provide integrated care. We are well-positioned as the leading platform for supporting consolidation having supported regional implementations in Ontario, Nova Scotia, and the Yukon territory…”VitalHub would also like to announce that it has allocated a total 542,500 options to various employees of the Company and members of its board of directors at a strike price of 2.03 cents a share.ABOUT NIPISSING MENTAL HEALTH HOUSING & SUPPORT SERVICES
