I couldn’t agree more with this thread.

Dr. Sarah Newbery 💙💛 is a gem — kind, generous, thoughtful, visionary, strong, and a fierce and tireless advocate for a better world.

Sarah, congrats and 🙏🏽 for everything you do

Virtual care is here to stay. With smart implementation, it can improve access, efficiency & equity. But integrated poorly, it can make things worse.

Appreciated the opportunity to explore this issue with Jordan Heath-Rawlings The Big Story Podcast

Is virtual care the answer to improving the health care system? Dr. Tara Kiran, family physician and researcher at St. Michael's Hospital, was on The Big Story Podcast talking about the pros and cons of virtual care: thebigstorypodcast.ca/2024/04/24/can…

Thanks for sharing! Folks, this is a great role to work with a team incld Tara Kiran on cutting edge work with #primarycare data

Getting rid of sick notes for illnesses ≤3 days is a good step forward for reducing unnecessary admin work for family docs.

Thanks OCFP Ontario Medical Association for your advocacy on this issue

'Citizens of Canada, unite. Demand of your gov'ts, providers & health-care organizations a primary care system fit for purpose in the 21st century.'

People in Canada were given a voice through OurCare.ca. Let's listen & act.

#OurCare engaged 150+ members of the public in deep dialogues where they spent 30-40 hrs learning and deliberating to improve #primarycare

Why did they volunteer?

What did they learn along the way?

Watch our latest video to hear directly from them
