Over the past year, 12 family physicians have joined the Victoria and South Island Divisions’ Long-Term Care Initiative (Vic-SI LTCI), ensuring more than 200 residents were not left without a Most Responsible Provider (MRP). Because an MRP is required for LTC admission, physician participation directly supports bed availability across the system. Every physician who takes on an LTC panel helps create access, not only for residents entering care, but also for patients waiting in the hospital and the community for the right level of support.
With our aging population increasing the demand for LTC physicians, 12 additional LTCI physicians are a significant step forward – but there is still room for more.
