A report from BC Family Doctors, Reimagining Family Medicine: Learning from the COVID-19 Experience, tells the story of the impact the pandemic has had on family doctors’ professional and personal lives—how COVID-19 shone a light on the cracks of a fragile primary care system. As well, it demonstrates how family physicians and the health system can be nimble when faced with a crisis.
BC Family Doctors brought together a group of family physician leaders to explore the potential to accelerate some of the positive changes that have emerged during the pandemic and shine a spotlight on the existing challenges aggravated by it. The report offers a comprehensive approach to supporting physicians’ needs both as health care providers and human beings. Read the report at https://bcfamilydocs.ca/pandemic-report [9].
BC Family Doctors advocates for family physicians across BC, working to ensure the fundamental role of family doctors is seen, heard, and valued.
