Past Changing the Way We Work Community of Practice sessions

The Changing the Way We Work Community of Practice is a space for family physicians across Ontario to connect and learn from each other. Approximately once a month, practicing family physicians share their perspectives on topics ranging from implementing virtual care, to organizing community collaborations, and supporting patients with mental health and addiction. These one-hour webinars are interactive and questions from participants are answered in real-time where possible. Each session is recorded and shared after the event, including links to notable resources.

This Changing the Way We Work Community of Practice is a joint initiative from the University of Toronto Department of Family and Community Medicine (DFCM) and the Ontario College of Family Physicians (OCFP).

Please visit the DFCM events page for upcoming sessions.
