Care Forward
Care Forward is a pan-Canadian movement of people sharing knowledge and applying proven approaches to improve healthcare quality and safety for at least one million people across the country.
Our four key priorities
We’re focused on driving change on four key priorities, each one supported by a suite of programs and resources that help healthcare teams make meaningful improvements:
A movement rooted in local action
Teams across Canada are taking part in Care Forward. From rural communities to urban centres, nearly 500 teams are redesigning care to meet urgent health needs.
Right Care Challenge
Health and social care delivery teams ensure people get the right care, at the right time, in the right place.
Enhancing Integrated Care
Primary and community care delivery organizations work to strengthen integrated team-based care, including virtual care.
Primary Care Access Improvement
Team-based primary care organizations create efficiencies and optimize team functioning so they can provide timely access to care.
Paramedics and Social Prescribing
Paramedic teams implement social prescribing to connect people with local non-medical social and community supports.
Nursing Home Without Walls
Jurisdictions across the country bring nursing home support and services to older adults, helping them age safely and comfortably where they already live.
Sparking Change in the Appropriate Use of Antipsychotics
Long-term care homes across Canada use person-centred approaches and reduce the potentially inappropriate use of antipsychotics for people living with dementia.
Change happens in partnership
Supporting organizations across Canada are helping drive meaningful progress as part of Care Forward.
