What Is My Health Care Journey?

Explore 12 scenarios that our North York health care and community providers commonly encounter. These unique health care journeys highlight specific concerns and provide information on the relevant North York-centered, Greater Toronto Area and Ontario-wide resources that could help.

Thank you to our Partners and colleagues who helped us develop this resource.

We invite you to share any feedback with us at nythp@nygh.on.ca.
