"This is the Central Okanagan Division of Family Practice’s PMH Engagement Journey. The PMH Engagement Journeys were designed to capture eight divisions' early implementation of the patient medical home (PMH) model of health care. The stories offer a look at the challenges and successes the divisions experienced along their journeys, and the resources they created to engage members and partners around primary care. It is the hope that these stories will act as a resource, support, and source of inspiration for other divisions beginning their journeys to an integrated system of care via the PMH."

"The report provides valuable lessons about the process of onboarding and integrating nurses into family practices (e.g. preparation prior to onboarding, building trust with team members). Initial outcomes related to attachment, access, and patient and provider experience are explored. While the findings in the report are primarily focused on the Nurse in Primary Care Practice program in Central Okanagan, the findings can be applied to any team-based care environment, regardless of funding model."

"The case study was intended to document the status and operations of the centre, the growing partnership between the Division and the centre including the development of TBC, to capture the formative information, establish a baseline of information for tracking for centres/ partnerships developments and to provide information regarding ‘next steps’."

"This is the full case study report for the Sunshine Coast Data Integration Case Study. The Sunshine Coast Data Integration Case Study explores work done to advance data integration across five primary care clinics using Med Access EMR. The project involved 38 family physicians on the Sunshine Coast who desired a technical solution to lacking information continuity for their patients, who they often see across multiple primary care settings with separate EMRs. While the project work stalled due to technical problems that emerged during the vendor engagement step, the case study offers previously unavailable insight into the expected project phases for large-scale data integration work, and typical challenges and enablers that might impede or maintain such initiatives."

"This report presents findings from a case study of the Patient Summaries Pilot, delivered in Victoria, British Columbia, from September 2015 to July 2019. This case study covers the development of the patient summaries pilot over the first four years of operation, describing the pilot implementation, local network of project partners, technical components of the patient summaries’ development, provider perspectives, and project outcomes. A discussion of the conditions for success is included. As part of the General Practice Service Committee’s (GPSC) ongoing evaluation of Patient Medical Home (PMH)initiatives in BC, this case study helps to build a provincial picture of PMH innovation and implementation."

"The PMH Most Significant Change Evaluation describes the changes that resulted from Patient Medical Home (PMH) strategies such as the implementation of team-based care with allied health professionals (i.e., pharmacists and social workers). By collecting, sharing, and reflecting on PMH stories from across BC, this project identifies common and different values held by different stakeholder groups in the BC health system."
