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 …
The Impacts of Team Culture on Primary Care Teams
Background: Integrated services delivery in primary care is essential, particularly given the current challenges in primary care in Canada. Primary care teams (PCT) provide a way to facilitate integrated care. PCTs in British Columbia (BC) have evolved with widespread implementation of primary care networks, urgent and primary care centres, and community health centres. Team culture can have significant impacts on team functioning and processes, …
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 …
Leveraging Innovation to Improve Rural and Remote Emergency Health Services in British Columbia
Background: Almost twenty percent of BC population live in rural settings; yet accessing healthcare, particularly emergency health services (EHSs), is challenging for rural and remote populations as they continue to experience systemic inequities, higher incidence of chronic illnesses, and lower access to healthcare services. Access to EHSs is essential for integrated health services for these populations. Despite the challenges, healthcare provi…
Relational practices for meaningful inclusion in health research
INTRODUCTION: The importance of including people affected by research (e.g., community members, citizens or patient partners) is increasingly recognized across the breadth of institutions involved in connecting research with action. Yet, the increasing rhetoric of inclusion remains situated in research systems that tend to reward traditional dissemination and uphold power dynamics in ways that centre particular (privileged) voices over others. In…
Patient, family member and caregiver engagement in shaping policy for primary health care teams in three Canadian Provinces
INTRODUCTION: Improving health services integration through primary health care (PHC) teams for patients with chronic conditions is essential to address their complex health needs and facilitate better health outcomes. The objective of this study was to explore if and how patients, family members, and caregivers were engaged or wanted to be engaged in developing, implementing and evaluating health policies related to PHC teams. This patient-orien…
