Testimonials

“As a virtual NP, I thought the training was extremely valuable because the lines of communication can be blurred while attempting to put a patient's best interest at heart while providing virtual care. Going through this training has highlighted the best way to protect a patient's right to privacy while performing my duties in the most ethical format possible." — Nkechi B., NP, Vaughan

“As an International Medical Graduate (IMG) newly arrived in Canada, my primary motivation for completing this training was to familiarize myself with the Canadian healthcare landscape before I begin practicing. Navigating a new system can be daunting, and understanding the specific provincial standards for data protection is a crucial first step in my transition.

The training was incredibly helpful in bridging the gap between my previous experience and Ontario's specific regulatory requirements. It gave me a clear framework for how patient trust is maintained here through rigorous privacy protocols. I would highly recommend this to other IMGs or newcomers; it's an excellent way to build a solid foundation in "Canadian-style" practice and ensures you aren't catching up on these vital security habits later on." — Kazi M., International Medical Graduate, Toronto

“I completed this training to strengthen my understanding of privacy and security in a clinical setting, especially with the increasing use of EHR systems and digital tools. The course provided practical insights into safeguarding patient information, managing security incidents, and understanding accountability, which I found very relevant to daily practice.

I believe this training is particularly valuable for physician and team members involved in patient consent, information sharing, and administrative or IT-related roles. It also offered helpful scenarios that reinforced how we can better protect patient information in real-world situations." — Fariba Z., Other Allied Health Professional, Aurora

“As clinicians, we’re navigating rapid changes in digital health, and with already busy workloads, it’s challenging to ensure we’re integrating new AI tools safely into our practices. OMD’s Privacy & Security modules take the guesswork out of that process – these new modules are relevant, practical, and aligned with the realities of clinical practice today.” — Dr. Loredana Di Santo, Family Physician, North Bathurst FHO, Maple

“I found the new AI content particularly valuable in understanding how PHIPA applies when using AI applications. The emphasis on reviewing outputs for accuracy and ensuring reasonable safeguards are in place gave me greater confidence in adopting these tools.” — Roger Mandjlekian, Clinic Executive, North Bathurst FHO, Maple

“Clinicians are navigating rapid changes in digital health, and with already overloaded schedules, OMD’s Privacy & Security modules make it easier to understand what happens to patient data and how to safeguard it. They help clinicians move beyond uncertainty and adopt new technologies thoughtfully and safely, while reducing administrative burden. The updated content is relevant, practical, and aligned with the realities of clinical practice today." — Amanda R., Minesing

“I completed the training yesterday and even though I filled out the survey after I was done, I wanted to share with you how much I enjoyed that training. It was very informative and I was able to leave with more knowledge than I entered with. I feel that this training would be most beneficial for every person who works with an EMR.” — Gene Vallee, Medical Office Assistant
