--0000000000007fbecc05eaeabf70 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Great tip! Geoff had mentioned connecting with the Flow Coordinator. I know the hospitals in my region all operated slightly differently. If anyone else comes across a different title to ask for, please share. Geoff-the few times I was transferring new residents from a Toronto hospital they had completely different roles/responsibilities from the HCCSS Cambridge. One hospital in my region has a multi-discipline team, (as of 1/2yrs ago) called the Allied Team. I just sourced the main contact yesterday and hope to get their contact or warm intro before the end of this week. Keep the tips coming-thanks!
