What is Saskatchewan Virtual Visit?
Saskatchewan Virtual Visit (SK VV) is the application used within the Saskatchewan Health Authority for clinical videoconferencing.
Videoconferencing is a communication technology that lets people connect in real-time with video and audio by using the internet. When used for health care services or patient care, stronger security and privacy measures must be added to make sure the connection is safe and secure.
