Understanding the importance of context in family medicine: from the molecular to the community level

Le jardin sauvage : les strates de la pratique familial

Dans cet épisode inaugurale en français du balado du Médecin de famille canadien, la Dre Marie-Dominique Beaulieu discute de l’évolution de la médecine familiale vers une approche davantage centrée sur la santé populationnelle et la responsabilité communautaire. L’entretien explore les défis liés à l’intégration des soins primaires et de la santé publique, l’importance du travail interprofessionnel ainsi que le rôle potentiel des outils numériques et de l’intelligence artificielle dans l’amélioration des soins. La conversation aborde également les tensions entre soins individualisés et gestion populationnelle, les risques d’inégalités et les raisons pour lesquelles plusieurs réformes en soins primaires peinent à être implantées. Enfin, la Dre Beaulieu partage sa vision d’une pratique exemplaire de la médecine familiale pour les prochaines années, ancrée dans la collaboration, la proximité avec les communautés et une meilleure prise en charge collective de la santé. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

What should Dr. Ian McWhinney’s legacy be?

What should Dr. Ian McWhinney’s legacy be? Join CFP Editor Dr. Nick Pimlott and Associate Editor Dr. David Ponka in a wide-ranging conversation with Dr. Iona Heath about her essay “Continuity of care should be Dr. Ian McWhinney’s lasting legacy”. This layered essay is a contemporary reflection on Ian McWhinney’s third principle that the family physician sees every contact with his patients as an opportunity for prevention or health education. For 35 years Dr. Iona Heath practiced comprehensive family medicine in Kentish Town in London, UK. Dr. Heath is a past President of the Royal College of General Practitioners in the United Kingdom. Her essays on the nature and the state of general practice have been published in the British Medical Journal, the British Journal of General Practice, Clinical Medicine, and Canadian Family Physician and elsewhere. The essay and the books discussed in the podcast can be found at the following links: https://www.cfp.ca/content/cfp/72/4/230.full.pdf [https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cfp.ca%2Fcontent%2Fcfp%2F72%2F4%2F230.full.pdf&data=05%7C02%7Cpat%40cfpc.ca%7C833c7cddff1b401a8fa008dea557573f%7Cd948307afaa5496886d914a2163ee39d%7C0%7C0%7C639129991720596631%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=c2D%2BNEKK1FYmliUxJjVOh5GV0S%2FAS%2BWGH60tSayA4qg%3D&reserved=0]; https://canongate.co.uk/books/2244-a-fortunate-man-the-story-of-a-country-doctor [https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcanongate.co.uk%2Fbooks%2F2244-a-fortunate-man-the-story-of-a-country-doctor&data=05%7C02%7Cpat%40cfpc.ca%7C833c7cddff1b401a8fa008dea557573f%7Cd948307afaa5496886d914a2163ee39d%7C0%7C0%7C639129991720639393%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=qbZF4hexLVP9Axc3mb1rA%2BusE2uF95HwvEh3IPW8oJg%3D&reserved=0]; https://www.penguinrandomhouse.ca/books/395860/the-spirit-level-new-edition-by-richard-wilkinsonkate-pickett/9780241954294) [https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.penguinrandomhouse.ca%2Fbooks%2F395860%2Fthe-spirit-level-new-edition-by-richard-wilkinsonkate-pickett%2F9780241954294)&data=05%7C02%7Cpat%40cfpc.ca%7C833c7cddff1b401a8fa008dea557573f%7Cd948307afaa5496886d914a2163ee39d%7C0%7C0%7C639129991720666308%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=YfOGIPHHwSbpaT8%2FRmwLVSBQj8Z%2BDYQKlTOdPO1pIvA%3D&reserved=0].   ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Why is our health care system always in crisis?

For anyone who has practiced family medicine in Canada long enough, it can feel like the health care system lurches from crisis to crisis – from overcrowded emergency rooms to long wait times to see specialists to complete lack of access to a family physician or other primary health care professional for millions of Canadians. Join CFP Editor Dr. Nick Pimlott and Associate Editor Dr. David Ponka in conversation with Dr. Maxine Dumas Pilon and Dr. Timothy Holland. They are the lead authors of a three-part series in the journal entitled “Health care crisis: Looking beyond the obvious”. In the articles and on the podcast, they explore how we got here, a new way of thinking about health care systems and our goals for health, and a way out of our perpetual crises.
