By visiting gettingready.ca, patients can experience a more efficient and satisfying medical appointment. This tool enables them to actively participate in their care and take charge of their health. Content is available in French and English.
The Preparing for my appointment website was created as part of the project ”Improving the pathway for people without a family doctor going through the Guichet d’accès à la première ligne (GAP)”. This project is part of the PATIenTS program deployed by the Unité de soutien SSA Québec.
A research team and the CIUSSS de l’Est-de-l’Île-de-Montréal worked together with patient partners to develop this tool.
