Primary Care Practices can adopt climate change strategies to address the significant health impacts associated with environmental degradation.
Objectives
Clinicians are caring for people with increased food and housing insecurity, isolation and loneliness, and declines in mental health and at the same time, are often left unprepared and unsupported in addressing social needs.
There are 4 million caregivers across Ontario, providing an estimated 75% of the care to family members, partners, friends, or neighbours. Caregiver well-being has an impact on patient health outcomes – well-supported caregivers are more likely to provide better care. Primary care providers can play a key role in preventing burnout and enhancing caregiver well-being by initiating early interventions and connecting caregivers to support.
