OM DENNE EPISODE
We know our Canadian healthcare system is overloaded, and that preventative care may help address the increasing pressures on chronic and emergency care services. But how best to support people to actually do what they need to do to improve or manage their own health? In this series opener, we explore "upstream" healthcare through the BETTER Women research project - a collaboration between Women's College Hospital and the Canadian Cancer Society.
Discover how prevention practitioners, peer health coaches, and their patients are all working together to support lifestyle behaviour change that could prevent chronic diseases before they start. In this episode, we hear from family physicians, cancer prevention specialists, and researchers about why moving upstream is essential - and why it's so hard to achieve.
