The project will focus on constructively contributing to a better, more consolidated health system for end users. It will avoid any costs, instead focusing on contributed skills and Internet resources. It will be run in a transparent manner, relying mostly on open online communications. An accessible and multi lingual interface will be a key concept. It will focus on linking existing resources. Developed material will be made available for other projects. Being made completely redundant by vastly improved public health information would be an excellent outcome, although this outcome is unlikely as the public system can't be self-critical. | The project will focus on constructively contributing to a better, more consolidated health system for end users. It will avoid any costs, instead focusing on contributed skills and Internet resources. It will be run in a transparent manner, relying mostly on open online communications. An accessible and multi lingual interface will be a key concept. It will focus on linking existing resources and potentially developing constructive two-way communications.

<blockquote>We are a not for profit group with specialties in information design, the health system, language and accessibility, and are interested indeveloping no-cost online health resources for the Montreal region. We understand the health system as it is today is strained and fragmented, but clearly information should be easier to find as the Internet becomes a more important information source for many people. </blockquote> | |||
<blockquote>A major component of this project is consolidating hospital and clinic information, as well as including information such as facilities, number of clinicians, and so on. Can you let us know any plans from your organization to develop this type of resource? We're willing to manually source and enter this information, but would like to know if there are any official information sources we could use. Our goal is to constructively engage, link and develop this information. We understand this initial contact may need to be forwarded to find the appropriate person.</blockquote> | |||
