Healthcare delivery in Canada is at a tipping point, necessitating the acceleration of alternative care models that focus on preventative care and address key accessibility challenges. Additionally, approximately 50% of healthcare infrastructure in the country is over 100 years old, posing critical risks in terms of being unprepared to manage the surge in demand brought upon by the climate crisis and the physical toll of recurring weather events on the infrastructure.
