In an age when Ontarians can access extensive health information at a keystroke, patients and their families are increasingly advocating for themselves. Accordingly, pressure is growing upon hospitals, physicians and other clinicians to be increasingly transparent and collaborative.
Some physicians are reluctant to give patients greater control, and at the same time, some patients are accustomed to being deferential to their health care provider, and many are not aware of their legal rights in this connection. Against this backdrop is evidence that patient centred care can improve patient outcomes and reduce costs.
Conference Objectives
By the end of the conference, participates will be able to:
• Recognize what patient centred care really means
• Identify human and institutional barriers to patient centred care in Ontario
• Acquire up to date information on current policies and law regarding patient centred care in Ontario
• Consider how to start implementing patient centred care in their organization
• Physicians: recognize whether implementation of patient centred care is going to impact your practice
