Feb 1, 2021 - Continuity of Care
Did you know that when a patient consistently sees the same family doctor and team, it can lead to better health? In fact, there is evidence-based literature that shows increased continuity or care, reported by patients, is associated with decreased mortality.
What is Continuity of Care? Continuity of care is about improving Albertans’ health through stronger, ongoing relationships with their family physician/nurse practitioner and team, increased information sharing and enhanced care coordination.
Continuity is Better for Patients. When Albertans have a continuous, trusting relationship with a family physician and team, providers gets to know their patient’s story and become their medical home throughout their life.
The benefits of this strong relationship include:
- Increased access to appropriate care when it is needed
- Better health
- Better quality of care
- Improved care coordination
- Improved sharing of information between care providers
- Increased patient satisfaction
Important messages about continuity:
- Visit your regular family doctor when you have a health-related concern or question
- If your regular provider is unavailable, seek care from other members of the team or clinic who will then share information with your regular provider
- If you need urgent medical attention from the emergency department, follow-up with your family doctor to continue any communication or treatment given in the emergency department
- If your medical status changes, book an appointment with your medical home. They will help manage any changes and treatments that may be needed to help you get as healthy as possible quickly
- Don’t have a family doctor? For tools on how to find one, visit Find a Doctor.
