Understanding the effectiveness of the Metis Settlements Primary Care Initiative from a community-based perspective
EF 2023-24
Résumé
A collaboration between Alberta Health Services and the Metis Settlements Health Board is underway. The team is working to improve health equity by putting in place primary care services for each of the eight Metis Settlements. Alongside the AHS-Metis collaboration, our team seeks to carry out a research project together in a way that is led by the Metis Settlements to examine how effective the new primary care services are. There are three steps to the research. First, the team will have conversations with people living in the Metis Settlements to understand the best ways to do research from a Metis Settlement perspective. Then, the team will work together to create a Metis Settlement framework for evaluating health services. Finally, the team will use the new framework to understand how effective the new primary care services are. The research will be designed and led by the Metis Settlements, and will lead to knowledge that is useful to the Metis Settlements. The research will help improve quality of healthcare for people living on the Metis Settlements, and will positively impact the health of families and communities.
