Location: ONLINE

Date: June 27, 2025

Time: 12PM - 1PM

The CareNext Collective is hosting a virtual event that shines a spotlight on the PREVENT Clinic – a pioneering initiative that challenges traditional care pathways and demonstrates what happens when practitioners coordinate across silos and intervene earlier to prevent cardiovascular disease.

Learn from the visionary team at Waterloo Regional Health Network (WRHN) who brought the clinic to life, including practitioners, partners and the patients whose lives have been positively impacted by this preventative approach to care.

The CareNext Collective is virtual forum facilitated by the CareNext Coalition, a unique partnership between the University of Waterloo and the Waterloo Regional Health Network. The coalition is committed to bringing together clinicians, researchers and entrepreneurs to create more innovative and integrated heath care systems.
