VitalHub and Trinity Village Care Centre in Kitchener, Ontario, worked together to co-design the mobile solution called VH Tasks. The system addresses complex issues facing care providers and residents in long-term care facilities.

We expect to see orders as we present this solution throughout Canada in partne...
