Proud of this team's work in advancing our understanding of QI as it intersects with health equity. Our scoping review demonstrated a paucity of equity focused QI interventions & identified institutional leadership & championship + pt partnership key to success.

Proud of @THP_hospital on championing language concordant care. Evidence shows that when patients receive care in their preferred language, there is greater adherence to management plans, lower risk of medical errors, readmissions & no show rates. #languagematters

#DYK: In Mississauga, over 33% of the population speaks a non-official language as their first language. Using the Voyce app, THP patients can speak directly to a medically-trained interpreter who speaks their language. Read more: insauga.com/mississauga-ho…

Incredibly honoured and thrilled to be part of the work to champion and advance language concordant care across the GTA. This multi-site initiative highlights the impact of language as a determinant of patient care, access & outcomes. And our shared aim to do better.
Brian Wong@Brian_M_Wong

One initiative, co-led by @ShailRawalMD @SharfuddinNazia & Dhruv Nayyar seeks to improve language concordant care by increasing the use of professional interpretation for patients with limited English proficiency

Thank you Senator @drgigiosler for sharing your inspiring journey in leadership & reminding us all of the power within each one of us to drive change. We're honoured at @QuEST_Program to hear directly from a MD Senator & former @CMA_Docs President!
QuEST Program@QuEST_Program

The @QuEST_Program is so grateful for Senator Dr. @drgigiosler’s talk about physician advocacy. Dr. Osler says, “simply by being in healthcare, all of us are advocates to better health and healthcare for the people we serve.” Thank you for sharing your wisdom with our students!👏

In #YUL for meetings around @PhilanthropyCDA and having a few discussions about #WesternAlienation in the world of Canadian #philanthropy. National umbrella orgs need to acknowledge & decide to care enough to keep western orgs involved, or don't be surprised if they walk away.
