Supportive Care Kidney Research Group - One:CarePath

Finding a better path for advanced stage patients
 

Do you care for complex patients with advanced-stage chronic or non-curative conditions? Would you like better supports and improved coordination for yourself, and improved quality of life for your patients, while reducing system costs? If this sounds like your clinic, one:carepath may be the answer for your practice.
 
One:carepath provides funding and resources to Primary Care Networks and participating practices to co-design and test solutions that are tailored at a local level.
 
One:Path is an integrated Supportive Care Pathway and a provincial initiative that takes a proactive and co-managed approach in care planning with patients who have advanced-stage (non-curative) lung, heart, liver and kidney disease and/or cancers. It aims to:
  • provide symptom and crisis management
  • help patients maintain quality of life and functional status
  • avoid aggressive treatments, where appropriate
  • align care with patient preferences and values.
