EPIC: Our New Health Information System

KDH has Launched Epic!

Epic is a powerful digital health information system that uses the latest technology to securely store, organize, and access patient records while maintaining patient privacy.

Epic gives patients better access to their own health information and more seamless care from their providers:

  • With Epic’s private MyChart portal, patients can see their medical history, diagnostic test results, upcoming appointments, lists of allergies and medications, and even educational materials. Learn more about MyChart.
  • Epic gives the patient’s care team the information they need at their fingertips and is proven to reduce wait times, length of stay in hospital, and readmission.

KDH is part of the ‘Atlas Alliance’ of nine healthcare organizations in Eastern Ontario who use the Epic digital health information system. All of the hospitals in the Atlas Alliance have a seamless transition of patient information across sites, no matter where patients access care. This means that you tell your story once, and wherever you go in the network your care team is connected and ready to help!

The other members of the Atlas Alliance are –

  • Deep River and District Hospital
  • Hawkesbury and District General Hospital
  • Renfrew Victoria Hospital
  • St. Francis Memorial Hospital (Barry’s Bay)
  • The Ottawa Hospital
  • The Ottawa Hospital Academic Family Health Team
  • The University of Ottawa Heart Institute
  • Winchester District Memorial Hospital

“This letter is written to express my utmost appreciation and heartfelt thanks to the Emergency Team at KDH. Last Tuesday morning I received a phone call from my teenage son Markus’s school informing me that he had inadvertently eaten a cookie containing peanuts. As he has a life-threatening peanut allergy, this was an immediate cause for concern. Markus was taken to the ER and immediately given a dose of norepinephrine, followed by an infusion after he had a second reaction. Markus was transferred to CHEO by ambulance later in the afternoon. As you can imagine, this was an incredibly impactful experience for Markus and my entire family. We have such respect for the wonderful work of the Emergency Team at KDH, to whom Markus owes his life. Everyone was caring, kind and professional. Special thanks go to Dr. Pelletier, Dr. Jones, and nurses Catherine, Heather, and Melissa."
