About Team Up! Team-based primary and community care in action
A podcast that brings together primary care providers, healthcare planners, patients, innovators and others to talk about the changes that are happening in primary care in British Columbia.
Special Episode: BC Primary Care Roundtable Discussion and Wrap Up
In this special episode of TeamUP!, Morgan and Sarah host a roundtable discussion with friends of the Innovation Support Unit to talk about the past, present, and future of Primary Care change in British Columbia.
The guests are both optimistic for the future and a bit sad as context of the episode’s conversation: the ISU, a unit that began eight years ago to strengthen and support Team-Based Primary Care in British Columbia, is wrapping up its core work with the BC government.
Throughout the episode, guests Angela Wignall, Valerie St. John, Christie Newton, Carolyn Canfield, and Andrew Earnshaw, discuss highlights of BC’s primary care strategy, new compensation models, relationship building and team development, collaboration challenges, and foundational needs.
This will be the last planned episode for TeamUP! Sarah and Morgan are not yet sure where they will turn there podcasting eye to next, but they do not want their microphones to go to waste, if there is an audience wanting to hear from them.
Please enjoy this episode, and thank you for being a part of the TeamUP! community!
