This results in inconsistencies and delays in treating patients. Challenges such as navigating health care silos and fragmented patient journeys have led to inefficiencies and patient safety concerns. <br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nIn recent years, New Brunswick has recognized the need for a more streamlined and integrated health care experience for both patients and providers. <br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThe current state is unsustainable:<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n\u2022\tInformation is stored on paper records in each hospital.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n\u2022\tProviders receive patient information through multiple systems, faxes, and calling other hospitals. Patients wait as their health information is retrieved.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n\u2022\tPatients are asked to repeat their story over and over again, and diagnostic tests may be repeated unnecessarily.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n\u2022\tCare and treatment protocols vary across the province.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nOur priority is better, safer, coordinated patient care.<br \/>\r\n<\/div>      <\/div>\r\n    \r\n      <\/div>\r\n<\/section><section class=\"text-grid-section bg-brand-light lightmode relative\" id=\"block_e675807f9042ad20f87e09b598f8efd6\">\r\n      <span id=\"guiding-principles\" class=\"block-anchor\"><\/span>\r\n  \r\n  <div class=\"container column-main\">\r\n          <div class=\"title-wrap flex flex-col gap-4 py-12 md:py-16\">\r\n        <div class=\"text-p3 text-jet-250 leading-none font-bold\">About Symbio<\/div>        <div class=\"h6 leading-none text-black font-bold\">Our Guiding Principles<\/div>        <div class=\"intro flex flex-col gap-8 text-p2 pt-3 text-jet-250\"><p>A strong set of guiding principles anchors decisions throughout our planning and implementation, ensuring alignment across partners.
