Developing recommendations and actions for integrated services delivery through primary health care teams in Canada
Understanding policy supports for Team-Based primary healthcare models
Background: Industrialized countries are facing pressure to address the complexity of populations who experience high needs with significant costs to the health system. Interprofessional team-based care (TBC) is an essential component of integrated care strategies to respond to these complex needs. However, TBC models operate within complex policy environments that can facilitate or constrain their activities. The main goal of this project is to …

Understanding policy supports that enhance equity in the Primary Health Care System
Background: Promoting government efforts to transition to team-based care models in Canada is essential; it aligns with the imperative of ensuring health equity within primary healthcare (PHC) settings. By addressing the fundamental principle of fairness and striving to mitigate disparities in access, quality, and outcomes, these team-based care initiatives can foster a more inclusive and effective healthcare system. This study, part of a larger …

Multiple stakeholders’ perspectives on improving virtual cancer care for older Black adults
Introduction: Cancer is the leading cause of death in Canada. Social distancing regulations during the COVID-19 pandemic drove the rapid transitions of health care systems from in-person to virtual cancer care. Virtual care refers to the secure usage of various forms of information and communication technologies such as phone calls, video conferencing, or patient portals to facilitate/optimize the quality of patient care. Virtual care has been sh…
Mentoring the Next Generation of Integrated Care Stakeholders
While the benefits of mentorship programs are well established, their effective design, implementation, and sustainability remain complex and challenging. This perspective paper contributes to the mentorship literature by presenting key lessons learned from the implementation of a mentorship program in the emerging field of integrated health and social care. We suggest that prioritizing thoughtful mentor-mentee matching, promoting flexible and ad…
Identity coherence and differentiated life trajectories among social work students

The next generation of students, academi…
Equity Promoting Integrated Care
Over the last three decades, integrated care has emerged as an important health system strategy to improve population health while addressing the unique needs of structurally marginalised communities. However, less attention has been given to the role of integrated care in addressing issues related to inequities in health and health care. In this commentary we introduce the concept of Equity Promoting Integrated Care (EPIC) that situates integrat…

Transition démographique en cours, transitions professionnelles et organisationnelles à accomplir
La situation du Québec et celle des pays de l’Afrique francophone se différencient à nombre d’égards, tant sur les plans démographique qu’économique. Malgré ces différences, tous ces pays partagent un même défi fondamental, soit la nécessité d’ajuster l’offre de services de santé et sociaux à la transition démographique découlant du vieillissement global de leur population. Si la démographie québécoise présente une transition quasiment accomplie,…

Implementing Community Based Primary Healthcare for Older Adults with Complex Needs in Quebec, Ontario and New-Zealand
The aim of this paper is to set the foundation for subsequent empirical studies of the "Implementing models of primary care for older adults with complex needs" project, by introducing and presenting a brief descriptive comparison of the nine case studies in Quebec, Ontario and New Zealand. Each case is described based on key dimensions of Rainbow model of Valentijn and al (2013) with a focus on "meso level" integration. Meso level integration is…
Multiple Perspectives Analysis of the Implementation of an Integrated Care Model for Older Adults in Quebec
Mandated system-wide integration appears to have structural, organizational, functional, and normative transformations, but its clinical changes are more uncertain in view of the observed divergent perspectives of actors. It will be interesting to explore if the systemic changes are precursors of clinical changes or, on the contrary, explains the lack of clinical changes

What does one learn from the implementation of a mandated integrated network for older adults across three different settings in Quebec
Context: In 2004, Quebec mandated its 94 Health and social services centers to lead in the implementation of local integrated health networks. The Health and social services centers, which were created by the fusion of some public establishments (local community health centers, long term care facilities and acute care hospitals in some cases), provide a broad range of health and social services to their populations. To ensure the provision of a c…
