Q. We are interested in joining the program for multiple locations within the CESPHN. We would like to know- if there is a minimum number of practice staff, GP or nurses that is required for those training sessions and QI activities?
A. No, there is no minimum participation requirement. The program is open to the entire practice, and we encourage all relevant staff, including GPs, nurses, administration staff and allied health clinicians to participate.
If multiple practices are applying, each practice must submit a separate EOI to be eligible for the $5,000 funding per site. If you prefer to combine the program across locations, only one EOI is required, but funding will be limited to a single payment of $5,000.
Q. Does the practice require the presence of a practice nurse to undertake the Intellectual Disability Primary Care Inclusion Program.
A. No, a practice nurse is not required. The practice only needs the capacity to undertake training and complete Quality Improvement activities.
