Given the shocking announcement of forced closures of supervised consumption sites & needle and syringe distribution programs in Ontario yesterday, here is a thread of what was announced by Minister Jones, with most details pulled from her remarks at AMO https://t.co/SZR3AD4vrJ

Our final plenary features @CormacRussell w/ incredible insights for building integrated primary health care with communities at the centre: “We must start with what’s strong, not what’s wrong. We must make visible invisible ways communities keep themselves well.” #Alliance2024

@FarrahRamzan @skillsforcare Thank you so much for taking the time to share such amazing innovation! I was so thrilled to meet the team and talk about your work.

[Alliance for Healthier Communities @AllianceON]

We’re excited to be here, talking with Alliance members across the province about the ways #SocialPrescribing is changing people’s lives, improving health outcomes, and helping community health organizations work together better.

Primary care for all is not a dream

It's the reality in 🇳🇱🇳🇴🇫🇮🇬🇧🇫🇷🇩🇪🇳🇿🇩🇰🇮🇹

In our latest paper @CMAJ, we draw lessons for Canada from these 9 OECD countries

They set a goal of 100% attachment to #primarycare & spend more of their health budget on it🧵

[Alliance for Healthier Communities @AllianceON]

A great turnout for Community Primary Health Care Day at Queen’s Park to talk about how Community Health Is Essential. Great to see many MPPs from all parties, including Health Minister @SylviaJonesMPP, engaged w/ Alliance members and the work they do across Ontario. #CHWW2023

Great article describing the important role of CHCs
1. CHCs can & should be playing a pivotal role in delivering health solutions
2. CHCs improve people’s health & save the health system $
3. CHCs provide a vital role in serving folks who are marginalized & without access

[Carly Weeks @carlyweeks]

At a time when the number of people experiencing homelessness is rising and the health care system is overwhelmed, community health centres say they can do more to provide primary care and other help to vulnerable, at-risk individuals, but need $ to do so. My piece today.

[Tara Kiran @tara_kiran]

A key recommendation from #OurCare public members in BC was the expansion of Community Health Centres—team-based, community-governed clinics that provide holistic care.

@SparkyMarky007 Some of the data is stratified by age, income and deprivation index (it is reported for each OHT. There are certainly differences. Check out the excel files - most have been updated with 2022 data https://t.co/KyTGvrLjvb

The INSPIRE data is so helpful. Thank you! If you haven’t already check out more data at https://t.co/D5E6k8QmnJ

Primary Health Care Map produced to assist w/ understanding & development of attachment strategies at the OHT and community level. OHTs and team-based care orgs will find this an important decisional support tool for prioritizing attachment strategies going forward

[Jennifer Rayner @RaynerJen]

Great article highlighting Centretown CHC & CHCs generally. A team-based approach is always the best and we need to support greater access to teams to ensure a person can access the care they need - especially those who experience social complexities. https://t.co/DjHJvDYzHQ
