Primary care
The Primary Care Virtual Community brings together leaders in primary care who are interested in supporting meaningful change in Ontario’s healthcare system.
Future Innovator Awards
We honoured people, organizations and teams in Ontario that focused on partnering with patients and caregivers to improve the healthcare experience.

Early in the Changing CARE journey, we thought about how to measure impact. This report profiles five case studies and four key insights – including survey and qualitative data, lessons learned and implications for moving forward.
