Engaged Leadership

Overview

Engaged leadership is one of the foundational implementation elements for building a Patient's Medical Home (PMH). As PMH transformation work requires changes in cultures, relationships and routines, engaged leaders are required to set the course as well as support and sustain efforts. Engaged leaders do this at the clinic, Primary Care Network, and system levels. Without engaged leaders, teams struggle to make and sustain the key changes that are required for transformation.

Within the PMH model of practice, engaged leaders should be visible throughout the transformation process. Behaviours exhibited by engaged leaders in the PMH model often include:

Providing direction and motivation to support a new way of working while reinforcing that the change is not time-limited
Identifying and allocating resources (e.g. time, money, staffing, and equipment) to do the work appropriately
Removing barriers and providing a supportive work environment for those who support the clinic's transformation
Fostering local champions to help propagate and reinforce the message

Physician Leaders Network

The Physician Leaders Network (PLN) is a network of practice for physicians who wish to apply their passion and skills to lead the way to an integrated health system. The PLN is designed by physicians for physicians and provides practice tools, resources as well as an avenue to share and learn from peers.

Board Competency Training

Primary Care Network (PCN) Board and Joint Governance members have a role to play in leading Patient's Medical Home transformation. Board competency training was created to help PCN board members develop knowledge and skills in the principles and application of good governance.
