De la prise de conscience à l’action : dépasser les préjudices, viser des soins plus sûrs

Ce webinaire sera présenté par Excellence en Santé Canada.

Nos défis les plus pressants en matière de soins de santé exigent des discussions ciblées et constructives — nous devons faire ouvertement part de nos différentes expériences et perspectives, et écouter celles des autres. C’est expressément dans ce but qu’Excellence en santé Canada a créé la série Pleins feux.

Ce webinaire sera présenté en français, avec un service d’interprétation simultanée en anglais.

Ne manquez pas cette édition spéciale de la série Pleins feux, qui aura pour toile de fond le thème de la Semaine nationale de la sécurité des patients 2025, Des soins plus sûrs, portés par toutes les voix. Ce webinaire mettra en lumière le rôle essentiel des prestataires, des bénéficiaires et des partenaires de soins pour améliorer la sécurité des soins, au-delà des seuls systèmes et politiques.

Les panélistes souligneront qu’en laissant chaque voix s’exprimer, nous pouvons renforcer la sécurité, bâtir la confiance et opérer des changements concrets. Découvrez comment passer de la théorie à la pratique et agir collectivement pour rendre les soins et services de santé plus sûrs pour tout le monde.

Veuillez noter qu’il y aura deux séances de la série Pleins feux à l’occasion de la Semaine nationale de la sécurité des patients. Le webinaire du 28 octobre sera présenté en anglais, avec un service d’interprétation simultanée en français, tandis que celui du 30 octobre sera présenté en français avec un service d’interprétation simultanée en anglais. Les panels seront différents d’un webinaire à l’autre.

Q&A for IPCT Expansion EOI: Applying the Neighbourhood Health Home Model

This webinar is presented by the Alliance for Healthier Communities

In early October, we hosted a webinar about how primary care teams, providers, OHTs, and PCNs can prepare their IPCT Expansion Expressions of Interests (EOIs) to incorporate the Neighbourhood Health Home model of Primary Health Care. The Neighbourhood Health Home enables regions to attach people to primary health care while addressing health inequities and improving primary care provider experiences. The model offers a path toward connected, equitable, and integrated care for people and communities.

We are excited to invite our speakers back for an extended Q&A session. Speakers will address questions from the previous webinar and attendees can ask further questions about 1) how to align their upcoming EOI submissions with the Neighbourhood Health Home model and 2) how one team is actively implementing the model with their community.

#  Who should attend:

  • Primary Care Network Leads/Members
  • OHT Leads
  • FHO, FHG, FHN Primary Care Physicians
  • IPCTs – FHTs, cFHTs, NPLCs, CHCs, IPHCOs
  • Anyone supporting IPCT expansion

Communicate and engage with patients, caregivers and communities

This webinar is presented by CASCADES Canada.

Community collaboration and integration are crucial for building resilient health systems, especially in the context of climate-related challenges. Engaging patients, caregivers, and communities in the design and delivery of healthcare services improves quality of care and can advance a more sustainable system.

By leveraging local knowledge, health systems can design preparedness strategies that are context-specific and address the real needs of the community. Meaningful partnership is essential to reducing environmental impact and ensuring that patient and community voices are central in shaping the care they receive
