Quality Improvement
The Great Northern Family Health Team is committed to enhancing primary health care services available within our community, improving access to care and providing a collaborative, patient-centered approach to care. Quality Improvement is an ongoing priority that helps us continually find new and better ways of providing services, delivering care, improving the patient experience and achieve even better clinical outcomes.
Quality Improvement Plan (QIP):
In June 2010, the Ontario government passed The Excellent Care for All Act (ECFAA). This legislation helps support health care organizations to further improve the quality and safety of care they provide for the community. One of the ways the Excellent Care for All Act is helping healthcare organizations meet community’s expectations regarding quality, patient safety and accountability is through the public reporting of QIPs.
The Great Northern Family Health Team's Quality Improvement Plan (QIP) serves as a functional document which identifies our main improvement initiatives, provides meaningful accountability to our community, patients and staff and articulates our commitment to delivering safe, quality patient-centered care.
Our 2025-2026 Quality Improvement Plan (QIP) is made up of two parts:
-
Narrative: a document that provides a brief overview of our QIP, highlighting and listing our top priorities for the year. - View HERE
-
A spreadsheet that includes our improvement targets and initiatives. - View HERE
