Chronic obstruction pulmonary disease (COPD)*:

• Prevent or treat people diagnosed with COPD while managing the co-morbidities associated with the disease.

Post COVID-19

• Improve access to screening and vaccination (COVID-19, influenza and others) for vulnerable populations of the OHT.
• Review and plan what needs to be done to revive the health system as the pandemic draws to a close, and better support client, particularly vulnerable populations in the OHT.

Several other initiatives will be developed through the evolution of the team's collaborative work.
