Provincially integrated endocrinology care for BC

To improve the health of the diabetes population by exploring a collaborative Provincial Diabetes (Endocrinology) Strategy that is sensitive to local, cultural and ethnic needs, with multi-disciplinary stakeholders from all 7 BC health authorities (HA). The proposal begins with a 3-phase Needs Assessment (environmental scan) at 2 pilot sites (VGH urban and UHNBC rural), then expands BC-wide to identify gaps and barriers in care of adult diabetes outpatients (geographical disparities or variance from CDA guidelines).
