Important notice: OHT Shared Space groups are moving to Quorum - Timeline, changes, and next steps
Dear OHT Shared Space member,
Below is an important update that includes two changes taking place concurrently:
- OHT Shared Space groups are moving to Quorum - The groups you access on the OHT Shared Space will be available on Quorum.
- Quorum is migrating to a new platform with an updated design and a new web address.
Quorum and the OHT Shared Space are owned and operated by Ontario Health.
Why are these changes occurring?
These changes are part of Ontario Health’s web transformation work and will provide a better experience for community members.
Bringing OHT Shared Space groups onto Quorum gives members one place to connect across a unified health care community ecosystem that includes health system planning, clinical, and quality work.
When will these changes take place?
- You can continue to access the OHT Shared Space until August 18.
- From August 19 to 25, the OHT Shared Space will not be available.
- On August 26 onwards you will be able to access the OHT communities you are currently a member of on Quorum.
What’s staying the same and what’s changing?
Staying the same
- Access to your existing account and group spaces.
- Access to documents in the group(s) you’re in.
- Access to group activity (posts/comments). Note, the last 12 months will be retained; older activity will not be migrated.
- Your subscriber status. If you have clicked on the “subscribe to updates” button in one or more group(s), you will remain subscribed.
Changing
- OHT Shared Space will no longer exist; however, all OHT communities will be available on Quorum.
- Quorum will have a new web address which we will share on August 26.
- All members will be required to reset their password and accept the Terms of Use on Quorum after migration; instructions will be provided at a later date. Quorum and the OHT Shared Space have the same Terms of Use.
- Your private messages, if any, will not be migrated and securely deleted.
- Your photo, biography, or other profile details, if you added these on the OHT Shared Space, will not be migrated and securely deleted.
- Quorum’s look and feel will change to align with Ontario Health branding, with accessibility improvements aligned to the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA).
- Quorum’s site layout will be updated.
What if I need help?
An orientation video and user guide will be sent to you prior to migration and will be available on the new Quorum platform.
