The Project: Background
Interlake-Eastern RHA recently complied
data regarding service gaps in primary
health care.

So what is the solution?

Primary Care Networks
Promises to bridge and abolish gaps in silo-
style care.
Definition: “A formalized, collaborative
partnership between one or more RHAs,
independent primary care practices, and
other PCN partners who share the goal of
providing high-quality primary care services to
a defined PCN population.”

The ultimate goal of PCN development is
to assist PHC teams in providing the right
care, at the right time, by the right
provider in the right place.

Input Required
Interlake-Eastern RHA recognizes that staff

describe barriers and/or factors that
demonstrate readiness for change are
crucial in project progression and success

Part A: PHC Staff Feedback
All available PHC staff in Beausejour and
Pine Falls Primary Health Care Centres
were interviewed (~80%).
MD, RNs, Mental Health, admin staff

Questions Current role in PHC delivery
Describe what you envision as a "successful"
collaborative care model
What are some barriers in developing such a model?
How might these barriers be overcome?
If you had lead accountability for steering this PHC
transition how would you plan, manage and measure
progress using current or otherwise feasible resources?
If, in the coming year, you had to make one change
towards collaborative care in your workplace, what
would it be and how would you implement it?

Results: Common Themes
1) Role confusion regarding nurse
practitioners despite campaigns to increase
awareness.
Fluidity and individuality in nurse
practitioner roles and scope of practice
Better defining the role of a nurse
practitioner region wide or allowing for
individuality and defining the role of each
practitioner specifically would assist in
abating confusion.

Results: Common Themes
2) Need for better team relationships and
functioning and increasing role clarity in
better providing comprehensive PHC

Results: Common Themes
3) Team meetings along with more basic
levels of communication, such as handouts,
were suggested in bridging communication
gaps in silo-style practices.
![Page 21: Primary Health Care Survey · 2015-04-27 · How well does your PHC team educate you about, and help you access, other services that may benefit your health including other PHC services,](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070819/5f1bdb7624ba5e1fb8657d69/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
3 Take-Away Points: Part A
Fostering a stronger “team” may mitigate issues in other areas such as role clarity and better coordinating patient care
Team meetings were deemed to be essential in building a stronger team but need to be efficiently led by a team leader/management
Core resource crises must be addressed before a team can be expected to spend time and energy bettering its internal functioning
![Page 22: Primary Health Care Survey · 2015-04-27 · How well does your PHC team educate you about, and help you access, other services that may benefit your health including other PHC services,](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070819/5f1bdb7624ba5e1fb8657d69/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Part B: Client Feedback
Eight clients were recruited by various staff in
the Pine Falls Primary Health Care Centre.
The Beausejour Clinic was unable to
participate.
No formal interview questions were utilized in
building three “Client Stories”.
All clients ranked nine services areas.

Client Suggestion Summary (1):
1. Increase physician retention by selecting physicians who will enjoy the culture and activities available in Pine Falls. Increase the involvement of the municipal and town government in recruiting physicians.
2. Ensure physicians are familiar and comfortable with the breadth of practice in rural medicine or include specific training as to how they should proceed in such a way that the client is still able to receive proper medical care.
3. With such a large population of patients experiencing poor health, there is need for an increase in physical space and care providers who could focus on patient education especially regarding self-management.
![Page 36: Primary Health Care Survey · 2015-04-27 · How well does your PHC team educate you about, and help you access, other services that may benefit your health including other PHC services,](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070819/5f1bdb7624ba5e1fb8657d69/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Client Suggestion Summary (2): 4. Increase team-based care especially through
scheduling rotating appointments where the client may see all care providers beneficial to them. This would decrease travel time and inconvenience and act as a platform to easily incorporate more services such as counseling. Including a primary care nurse to act as a key educator may be of great benefit.
5. Organize more support groups and group teaching sessions to best utilize resources. Sessions should be held on a regular basis to ensure that clients are able to attend.
6. Increase the presence of elders and traditional First Nation medicine while working parallel to current western medicine.
![Page 37: Primary Health Care Survey · 2015-04-27 · How well does your PHC team educate you about, and help you access, other services that may benefit your health including other PHC services,](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070819/5f1bdb7624ba5e1fb8657d69/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Client Suggestion Summary (3):
7. Utilize nurse practitioners on reserves and in smaller communities to reduce travel costs and inconvenience to patients. Nurse practitioners, as salaried staff, are better able to take time to educate patients.
8. All acknowledged that if a client is not proactive in requesting care and services, they may be overlooked by care providers that do not ask anything beyond their presenting complaint. Thus, clients should be encouraged to bring a friend or family member to their appointments to act as a patient advocate.
![Page 38: Primary Health Care Survey · 2015-04-27 · How well does your PHC team educate you about, and help you access, other services that may benefit your health including other PHC services,](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070819/5f1bdb7624ba5e1fb8657d69/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Take-Away Points: Part B
A much larger sample size is needed to
produce more meaningful results.
Clients want increased education and
guidance in accessing PHC services.
Our patients are aware of shortcomings in
teamwork in PHC.
