About
Campbell River Medical Services Engagement Initiative (CRMSEI)
Facility Engagement was launched by the Specialist Services Committee in 2016 as a BC-wide initiative to strengthen communication, relationships and collaboration between facility-based physicians and their health authorities. The goal is to increase meaningful physician involvement in health authority decisions about their work environment and the delivery of patient care.
The Campbell River Medical Staff Engagement Initiative was incorporated on January 25, 2017 and received full funding approval from the Specialist Services Committee on March 15, 2017.
The Executive Working Group has representation from a wide variety of specialty services including:
Plastic Surgery
Internal Medicine
Family Practice
Pediatrics
Obstetrics/Gynecology
Midwifery
Anesthesiology
Together the group moves forward with improving relationships between physicians, with the acute care departments and leads, GEO 1 leadership, as well as having an increased presence with Island Health leadership and directors.
The Initiative has gained in popularity as evidenced by an increase of project and activity applications and feedback from physician colleagues.
Regular attendance at Island Health initiated committees contributes to increased communication to and from the Initiative. Committees include:
HAMAC/LMAC
Medical Leadership Restructuring Project Steering Committee
Best Patient Medical History/Medication Reconciliation
Collaborative Services Committee
Island Wide Medical Staff/Island Health collaborative events
Medical Staff Association President/Island Health meetings
