With the One Person One Record (OPOR) program, a new clinical information system (CIS) is rolling out across Nova Scotia. The system will connect patient information and care plans across IWK Health and Nova Scotia Health, supporting clinical standardization across the province, while improving patient safety, outcomes and experiences.

IWK Health was the first to implement the system on December 9, followed by sites across Nova Scotia Health’s Central Zone and select Mental Health and Addictions Program services on May 9. The final implementation of the CIS will take place on Saturday, November 14, with Northern, Eastern and Western Zones going live.
