 Written by Peter Kendall, Vice-président ventes et commercialisation | 21 June, 2018

During the [National Health Leadership Conference](http://www.nhlc-cnls.ca/) (NHLC) held this past June 4th and 5th in St-John’s, Newfoundland; Canadian health leaders gathered around a common interest: to improve the efficiency of healthcare establishments.

In collaboration with [HealthCare*CAN*](http://www.healthcarecan.ca/) and the [Canadian College of Health Leaders](https://www.cchl-ccls.ca/), this event put forward some of the most pressing challenges faced by Canadian health establishments, as well as strategies to overcome them. It is therefore as a pioneer in technological innovation and as a catalyst of change that PetalMD joined the event to unveil the benefits of its solutions to health leaders from across the country.

## **Change Management: Addressing a Major Concern in the Health Sector**

The primary goal for this year’s [National Health Leadership Conference](http://www.nhlc-cnls.ca/) was to foster and stimulate a progressive mindset in order to promote change across the Canadian health ecosystem.

Pursuing a common mission to optimize medical practices and quality of care, the various contributors of the Canadian healthcare sector have demonstrated a marked interest for the integration of modern technological tools to support their internal processes. Seeking to establish the most favorable conditions to welcome change within their establishments, these contributors shared their needs and strategies in a collaborative spirit.
