Annual Roundtable
Each year, the Executive Network members come together for an in-person roundtable event to share learning about priority focus areas.
2021 Roundtable
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Executive Network decided to postpone the 2021 roundtable until 2022.
2020 Roundtable
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 in-person roundtable was postponed. However, in May 2020, 日本无码 (newly created from the amalgamation of the Canadian Foundation for Healthcare Improvement and the Canadian Patient Safety Institute) hosted a 90-minute virtual roundtable. The event enabled participants to address some of the rapid changes occurring across the health system due to COVID-19, particularly in the area of virtual primary care.
