IHealth is a client-focused transformation within Island Health. It is all about client-centered care:
Supporting quality, safe patient care

Helping to decrease the risk of medication-related errors
IHealth is a transformative approach to health and care within Island Health and our community. One way we are achieving this is by using a technology called the Electronic Health Record (EHR).
