Program overview :
Partnering on Appropriate Virtual Care – Participating Teams
ÈÕ±¾ÎÞÂë supported 39 teams across 135 sites and nine provinces to participate in Partnering on Appropriate Virtual Care, an initiative that helped them work in partnership with patients, families, caregivers and communities to determine when and how virtual care should be used in their unique settings in an appropriate, safe and equitable way.
As part of their participation, each team was supported to develop a functional framework for evaluating when and how virtual care can be used appropriately.
The urban, rural and remote care settings included primary, community, acute and long-term care. Services provided included chronic disease prevention and management, mental health and addictions, and specialty care such as pediatric care, geriatric care and palliative care. They served diverse groups including vulnerable populations, older adults, First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities and newcomers to Canada. Project Themes:
- Equity and inclusive access
- Integrated people-centred care
- Culturally safe care with and for indigenous communities
- Social services & support to community
- Remote/virtual patient monitoring
- Safety in virtual care & safe care transitions
- Virtual care integration, infrastructure & development
