A Primary Care Perspective
Tune in October 6th, 12PM ET to listen to Dr. Anthony Train (Calgary) and Dr. Kimberly Wintemute (Toronto) suggest communication strategies and practical tools that encourage the kind of shared decision-making in which patients come to understand that some tests and treatments do not add value to their care, and may potentially cause unexpected and/or unforeseen harms. The topics highlighted in this presentation will be based on the Choosing Wisely Canada Family Medicine list ‘5 Things Patients and Physicians Should Question,’ created by the College of Family Physicians of Canada and will include cases on: antibiotics, sedative hypnotics, imaging, and more.
