It is intended to help partners shift existing visitor and caregiver presence policies towards person centred care based on the three foundational principles for successful reintegration of essential care partners into health and care settings.
This resource focuses on key steps in the journey to implement meaningful organizational change. The goal of this guide is to link those who implement policy, including those who lead person- and family-centred care and patient engagement with tools and resources that support Essential Care Partner program.
