Centralized Referral Management

The Short-Term Transitional Care Models (STTCM) pilot project was launched in Fall of 2017 by the Toronto Central LHIN and funded by the Ministry of Health to support the transition of patients from hospital to the community who are ALC or who are at high risk of becoming ALC without additional resources and supports. The initiatives are needs based, time limited and with no additional fee for the programs.
