The Ontario College of Family Physicians welcomes the continued momentum from the Ontario government and the Primary Care Action Team. We are committed to working closely with @SylviaJonesMPP and @janephilpott to ensure family physicians have the team-based support they need — and that every patient in Ontario can access the care they deserve.
Today Ontario launched the first call for proposals to add up to 80 new & expanded primary care teams that will connect 300,000 more people to primary care in the next year, bringing us a step closer to connecting everyone to primary care by 2029. Read at: news.ontario.ca/en/release/1…

Thrilled to share that I've matched to Family Medicine Residency at UofT! ‘I come as one, but I stand as ten thousand’ feels so fitting—this achievement would not have been possible without my family, friends, and mentors! @UofTFamilyMed @uoftmedicine #CaRMSMatch

Family doctors are essential to the health of Ontarians but right now, too many don’t have one. As OCFP President, @Drjvmd shares, when patients don't have a family doctor, cancers may go undetected, people miss vaccines & people turn to ERs because they have nowhere else to go.
Will Brampton, Mississauga and Caledon's 'scary' family doctor shortage be a pivotal campaign issue in this provincial election? ift.tt/pzCN26i

"I think people will lose out by not going into family medicine. It's the beauty of the continuity of the practice," says #TemertyMed Dr. Pamela Mark, who has been practicing family medicine for 40+ years. bit.ly/3Q76Ymg

Everyday Ontarians should not be lining up for hours, desperate for a family doctor. With an election in Ontario, the OCFP is advocating for all Ontarians to have access to a family doctor. We can change this by investing in support for family doctors. lifewithadoctor.ca/

As Canada’s health ministers meet this week, organizations representing the country's nurses and physicians are unanimous: governments must do everything in their powers to support health care workers and keep them caring for patients.

Investing in family medicine means making it an attractive and sustainable way to practice. Too many family doctors are leaving for other areas of medicine due to burnout and lack of support. Retaining them is key to ensuring Ontarians have access to care.

The OCFP urges the government to continue prioritizing patient care by enhancing access to family doctors. Streamlining processes and providing adequate support for family physicians will enable Ontario to retain its current family physicians and attract new ones in the future.

Thanks @markhollandlib for ensuring Canadians don't pay for medically necessary services! More work is needed to ensure disjointed "services" are not seen as #care. #FamilyPhysicians working in publicly funded #teams provide the best #healthcare Please don't stop here!
