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

“I felt compelled to send a note. I received a total hip at KDH three weeks ago. The experience was fantastic. I was quite stressed about the whole event and the team at KDH put me at ease very quickly. As I arrived I was looked after by Mary-Pat in the prep area. She was great – clear and reassuring in all of her communications and what I needed to do. I immediately felt more comfortable. Dr. Dave the anesthetist was great as well. He was confident, clear and experienced and after him giving me a spinal I really don’t remember a thing. Thanks to Dr. Grammatopoulos for the new hip – three weeks in and things are going well. I would give KDH a mark of 110%. I felt well cared for and the people I dealt with were professional, caring and provided great support.”
