Centre for Studies in Family Medicine

The Centre for Studies in Family Medicine contracted Dishout IT Solutions to develop the First Nations Diabetes Surveillance System (FNDSS).

The FNDSS is a web-based surveillance application that tracks type 2 diabetes and complication rates over time in First Nations communities. The goal of the surveillance system is to monitor and track diabetes rates so that informed decisions can be made to improve community care. The FNDSS is being piloted in five First Nations communities across Canada.
