Environmental Scans from CADTH (Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technology in Health)
CADTH conducts environmental scans of health care practices, processes, and protocols inside and outside of Canada. Environmental scans inform decision-makers about the use of health technologies across jurisdictions, particularly with respect to practice variation and policy gaps.
CADTH Environmental Scan: Power Mobility for Preschool Children (Feburary 29, 2016)
Rapid Responses from CADTH
The CDR Evidence Centre partners with CADTH (Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technology in Health) for rapid evidence reviews of topics relevant to Sunny Hill clinicians and families. Rapid Responses often inform more comprehensive E4Ps and can also be used as stand-alone products. CADTH’s Rapid Response Service is available to decision-makers from health ministries, health authorities, hospitals or regional and federal health care programs throughout Canada.
