Our Collective Duty to Act

Thank you to the over 750 individuals and 24 organizations who came together to sign and endorse Team Primary Care's Call to Action

Training for Transformation

Team Primary Care: Training for Transformation, a project launched in 2022 and funded by Employment and Social Development Canada, brought together more than 100 health professional and educational organizations with the goal of accelerating transformation change in the way primary care practitioners train to work together.

Team Primary Care is taking action to address the crisis in health care and help create a more sustainable system by transforming interprofessional care training in Canada. Team-based care allows for better patient access, as people receive medical care when they need it from the appropriate provider and are actively engaged in their care. Team-based care also increases health care capacity, enabling more Canadians, including Indigenous people, the elderly, and those living in rural settings to gain timely access.   

Team Primary Care is a unique and timely initiative that aims to transform primary care training and education, equipping Canada’s workforce for effective team-based care.
