"This is the recording of the Thinking in Networks & Change Strategy: Synergy in Practice session held during the GPSC Summit webinar series. It explored practical ways that an organization or team can prime itself for change processes, avoid the common cognitive biases that undermine successful change, and also presented methods to facilitate successful networks in the context of local primary health care delivery."

"This infographic was created by the Sunshine Coast Division of Family Practice and Vancouver Coastal Health to show the various roles occupied by a Primary Care Social Worker. This resource can be used by other PCNs, it can be provided to patients, or it could be placed in a clinic. It can also be used as a guiding template to be adapted or changed based on the role."

"This document examines the financial impact of the work environment of a Nurse Practitioner (NP) on Vancouver Coastal Health’s (VCH) budget. It evaluates the cost effectiveness of having the NP work from a General Practitioners (GP) clinic compared to the community healthcare clinic in the hospital. NPs are working in many different primary care areas, as a specialist or as generalist in a primary care setting. Compared to physicians, patient satisfaction and quality of care have been equal or higher than care provided by physicians. NPs are effective in the reduction of patient unattachment and reduction of emergency department (ED) visits. Although NPs take often more consultation time and sometimes conduct more preventative actions, their work can be comparable or even more effective compared to other providers.
This study hypothesized that the NP’s direct patient time and accessibility increases in the GP clinic, leading to a reduction of ED cost. ED and hospitalization cost of NP patients one year prior to attachment is compared with one year after attachment. Cost effectiveness is calculated by deducting incremental work environment cost by avoided ED and hospitalization cost."
