A Meaningful Way to Expand Your Practice

Campbell River’s LTCI team encourages Family Physicians to explore ways they can enrich their practice by spending a portion of their time caring for residents in our long-term care homes.
The provincial Long-Term Care Initiative (LTCI) is designed to optimize medical care and address challenges in long-term care (LTC), by enabling physicians to develop local, scalable, and sustainable solutions. Locally, the Campbell River & District LTCI works to improve the care of all residents in LTC homes, through implementing best practice expectations for medical care, collaborating with physicians and care home teams, and facilitating system-level outcomes intended to change the culture and structure of LTC.
