Guest: Dr. Sean B. Rourke, neuropsychologist at St. Michael's Hospital

Smart vending machines have launched on Canada's East coast. They're the first of what will be 100 nationwide. But instead of dispensing chocolate or candy, these machines hold life-saving supplies like HIV tests, naloxone kits and unused needles. They're called Our Healthbox and they're designed to reach communities underserved by traditional health care. Today, we're joined by Dr. Sean Rourke, a clinical neuropsychologist and scientist with MAP Centre for Urban Health Solutions at St. Michael's Hospital, who is leading the initiative. You can learn more about OurHealthbox and whether your community is eligible for a Healthbox here: https://www.ourhealthbox.ca/
