19 AUGUST 2025to collaborate and address the multifaceted patient needs. Through this holistic approach, caregivers effectively address the children's physical and psychosocial needs.However, we have recently noticed a significant rise in children exhibiting extreme behavioral issues, which further complicates their care. For example, in services like dental care, these behaviors can interfere with the treatment, requiring additional support and precautions to ensure the child's safety and the effectiveness of the care provided. Another ongoing challenge within the industry is the rising cost of care delivery. The limited availability of resources has made it crucial to identify solutions that deliver high-quality care within the established budgetary constraints. This strategy also necessitates collaborations with the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Children, and Community and Social Services to align with governmental policies and standards.THE FUTURE OF CAREAs we enter 2025, we are witnessing a surge in conversations about the future of care delivery, particularly around optimizing virtual care to improve efficiency and outcomes. At the same time, artificial intelligence (AI) is gaining significant traction, with several institutions exploring its potential to transform healthcare delivery. While the technology holds considerable promise, it also presents a range of privacy and ethical complexities. These challenges must be carefully addressed to ensure that AI is implemented responsibly, safeguarding patient confidentiality and maintaining ethical standards across the industry. Given the patient-centric nature of the healthcare sector, strong leadership is often rooted in connection and collaboration. As a result, leaders in this space need to prioritize their teams, particularly their clinicians, by actively listening to their insights and experiences. This collaborative approach fosters a supportive work environment while building trust and empowering those on the front lines to drive meaningful change.At Holland Bloorview, we excel at connecting with families and nurturing relationships. By working closely with them, we develop programs responsive to their needs, ensuring we provide care that truly benefits their communities. This partnership is integral to our company, as the children, youth, and their families receive care. Our objective is to address their needs by ensuring that their voices inform the design and delivery of our programs. STRONG LEADERSHIP IS OFTEN ROOTED IN CONNECTION AND COLLABORATION. AS A RESULT, LEADERS IN THIS SPACE NEED TO PRIORITIZE THEIR TEAMS, PARTICULARLY THEIR CLINICIANS, BY ACTIVELY LISTENING TO THEIR INSIGHTS AND EXPERIENCES
