"This document is the executive summary of the Burnaby DoFP Neighbourhood Networks case study. As part of GPSC commitment to the development of physician networks as a key component of primary care system change, the Burnaby DoFP Neighborhood Network case study explores the development and implementation of three neighborhood networks in Burnaby. The creation of neighborhood networks in Burnaby was prompted by family physicians who recognized the need to bring together family physicians from across local communities to increase their interconnectedness, provide opportunities for local Primary Care Network planning, and enable methods for sharing care with each other with the goal of improving patient access to medical care across Burnaby. Burnaby’s neighborhood networks have supported family physicians to connect socially, learn from each other, identify options for locum coverage and after-hours care, and support referrals to specialist care throughout the networks. Key outcomes: family physicians were able to increase patients’ access to care by referring patients to their family physician peers, expanding their use of locums, working on the development of an Urgent and Primary Care Clinic, and procuring additional healthcare resources for the neighborhood networks. A discussion of the neighborhood network's future goals and next steps is included."

"This case study employed four broad approaches to understand how PSP and the DoFP are working together to support the creation of networks. These approaches included:
1. A review of local documentation that focused on the relationship structure and current work taking place to support the development of FP networks.
2. A literature review which reviewed over 50 research articles, policy and position documents, guidelines, and best practices to focus on understanding how other groups across Canada and the developed world have worked together in primary care to create networks within primary care. These findings are available in Appendix 3.
3. Interviews with key stakeholders at a local, regional and provincial level to understand the various factors (i.e. political, environmental, technological, legal) influencing the development of FP networks in the Thompson Region and BC more broadly. The list of individuals interviewed is included in Appendix 1.
4. A survey of the members of the Thompson Region DoFP which asked questions on their current levels of networking and areas for which they see opportunities to network."
