Good, beautiful, inexpensive!
In fact, we would like to be in a position to export the highly effective intervention model we designed throughout Canada, to Saint-Boniface or elsewhere. You want a cardiac prevention and rehabilitation service in Saint-Boniface? We provide you with the data base we use, we train your staff, we recruit a bilingual person and then provide support. So if you have a minor problem with the data base software, the Heart Institute will serve as a resource.
Here's how the program works. Let us look at Alexandria, where members of the team are very autonomous: once the staff is trained, they recruit patients themselves, they are in a position to follow them, they promote the program in pharmacies, they meet with doctors to encourage them to send at-risk patients. So, we can reach the at-risk francophone population in the communities.
