Video Conference Rules, Tips and Conduct

The Ministry of Community and Social Services (MCSS) formed four Community Networks of Specialized Care (CNSC – regions include Central, East, North and South) to strengthen community-based services for adults who have a developmental disability and co-existing mental health issues and/or challenging behaviour. 

Through this MCSS Project, Ontario Telemedicine Network (OTN) is working with CNSC to extend service delivery through videoconferencing.  Project goals include

• expanding and enhancing access to comprehensive multidisciplinary specialized clinical services for individuals, their families and caregivers, and the agency staff and professionals that support them
• education and training for network member staff and the broader community at large. 
• Sharing knowledge, resources, expertise and building capacity cross-network and provincially

Lake Ridge Community Support Services is one of the agencies in the Central Network of Specialized Care.
