222 – Housing and health: A two-way prescription for Ontario’s future

November 8, 2024
2:00 p.m. - 3:15 p.m.

Join us to examine the critical connection between housing and healthcare in Ontario, exploring how housing stability directly influences health outcomes, and vice versa.  

The discussion will delve into how inadequate housing options can lead to increased hospital admissions and rising healthcare costs, while also addressing the specific housing needs of patients requiring specialized long-term care that hospitals aren’t equipped to provide.  

Together, let’s explore how housing can be a vital tool in improving health outcomes and alleviating the burden on Ontario’s healthcare system.
