Enabling Effective, Quality Population and Patient-Centred Care: A Provincial Strategy for Health Human Resources
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A key proposition set out in Setting Priorities for the B.C. Health System and a subsequent document on B.C. Health System Strategy Implementation: A Collaborative and Focused Approach is that the current utilization of hospitals is neither sustainable nor the best delivery system for meeting the needs of several key populations. The documents argue the need to radically rethink and reposition hospital care by providing a more effective range of services in the community. A suite of strategic policy papers – primary and community care, surgical services, and rural health services produced by the Ministry of Health are intended to address this shift in service delivery. This will have a significant impact on health human resources management.
