Essential to raise awareness and understanding of Canadians need for good science, effective data curation, open, explicit and transparent communication strategies rather than politically managed communications. ahoy! open.substack.com/pub/paulwells/…

A new patient navigation model of care to support older adults in transitions of care: Key considerations for PMs & DMs - Grace Liu, Kristina Kokorelias, Amanda Knoepfli, Tracey DasGupta, Naomi Ziegler, Emma Elliot, Sara J. T. Guilcher, Sander L. Hitzig, journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Yup. Interoperability is a must have for everyone living in Canada, both those receiving + providing care. Excellent article, with comments from @PocketHealthHQ on the overall benefits.

Looks like an important read! Openness, transparency + candour = 3 words for patient + family engagement from @DebHazeldine. Love this ❤️

"Never-words are conversation stoppers". This is an excellent article, probing the use of language and its impact on patients, families & caregivers.

Let's stop debating & get on with fixing #health systems. The evidence for this is clear. "A fundamental pillar of how our Canadian health insurance plan was designed was to ensure that people have #access based on medical need rather than ability to pay.” thestar.com/business/are-p…

It was a pleasure to speak with Dr Goldman @NightshiftMD - in a super awkward hallway just outside one of our dialysis units! My niece ended up on dialysis in Grade 11 - my brother donated his kidney (he rocks!). No province is doing more living donor kidney transplants each year. To do more, we need to diagnose the problem - but our data systems can't tell us where the bottlenecks are. White Coat Black Art with Dr. Brian Goldman cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…

Oh my. #HealthForAll is #1 on the @TorontoStar non-fiction bestseller list. This makes me super happy😀 for many reasons but mostly because it shows how much Canadians care about becoming a healthier country. Thank you to everyone who is sharing the story. thestar.com/entertainment/…

I’m in the UK doing some cross-country learning Discovered this terrific podcast—a convo b/w 2 women GPs and system leaders Remarkable that despite different systems the challenges we face in primary care are remarkably similar podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the… @NishaManekMD @NextGGP

Every improvement in emergency medical care comes following an inquest or a damning media report. There has to be a better way - there is a better way - National Summit on Emergency Health Care. @CAEP_Docs

"While it is fine to solicit inputs from academics, policymakers must understand such researchers’ limitations. Beyond the specific career incentives outlined above, it is understandable why academics are predisposed to a posture of radical ignorance." africanistperspective.com/p/there-is-a-l…
