This website launched April 1, 2020 with the great support of the Toronto Region hospital, long-term care, and education communities to provide key resources to prepare healthcare professionals who will be caring for Ontarians impacted by COVID-19.

The site and curriculum has been designed to meet the demands of healthcare workers and volunteers, in order to refresh and upskill them to rapidly redeploy to care for COVID-19 and/or critically ill patients in hospital and long-term care settings. The educational resources on the site were curated, developed, and generously donated by a highly skilled and collaborative team of educational experts, clinicians, and academics.
