<div>Today’s guest is a giant and well-respected figure in British Columbian Emergency Medicine. In addition to his many research and quality improvement projects, Dr. Jim Christenson helped create the British Columbia Emergency Medicine Network improving the quality of emergency care across the province. But far from slowing down in retirement, he’s continued pioneering work, turning his attention to the rural, indigenous communities on the west coast of Vancouver Island. In this insightful and moving interview Dr. Christenson talks about the current state of healthcare in these remote communities, the challenges of addressing inequity, his personal motivation for this work and some of the incredible and heartwarming encounters he’s experienced on the way.<br> <br> Links:<br> <a href="https://nhpqi.ca/">Northern Health PQI</a><br> <a href="mailto:[email protected]">E-mail us!</a> </div>

<div>In the second part of our interview with Northern Rural Family Physician, Dr. Ray Markham, we discuss some of his leadership work supporting rural communities across the province through the Rural Coordination Centre of BC. We discuss how to build a provincial support network and how the constraints of geography and remoteness can be turned to advantage by fueling innovation to improve care “at the edge”.<br> <br> Links:<br> <a href="https://rccbc.ca/about-us/our-story/#ppp">Partnership Pentagram<br> </a><a href="https://rccbc.ca/about-us/our-story/">RCCbc<br> </a><br> </div>

<div>Each year, the Institute of Healthcare Improvement holds its annual forum in December. Over 4 days, between 3 to 4 thousand healthcare quality improvers from across the world join together for a packed program of workshops, QI project reports, improvement science education and keynote lectures from renown speakers. This year, a large contingent of Canadians made the trip including some from Northern British Columbia so we decided to bring these Northern Physicians together for a fun panel discussion about their experiences and what they learned from this year’s forum. This is the recording of that discussion moderated by our regular Qualitycast North host Dr. Shyr Chui. We talk about our key takeaways, Dr. Anthony Fauci’s keynote, power networking and tips for first-time forum attendees.<br> <br> Links:<br> <a href="https://www.ihi.org/">Institute for Healthcare Improvement</a><br> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60nl5FbbFro">Dr. Kedar Mate and Dr. Thomas Lee Keynote</a> </div>
