Anchored and Aligned: People, Systems, and Purpose in Family Medicine

Retreat Learning Objectives:

  1. Analyze strategies to strengthen Family Medicine’s role as a comprehensive clinical and academic discipline, including approaches that support high-quality, patient-centred care across diverse practice settings and population
  2. Examine how structural and system-level factors, including workload, administrative burden, misinformation, and access barriers, affect physician well-being, equity, and patient outcomes, and identify strategies for meaningful change.
  3. Critically assess the impact of emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, on clinical decision-making, education, professionalism, and trust within Family Medicine.
  4. Identify and apply approaches that promote equity, cultural safety, and workforce sustainability, including strategies that support Indigenous health, Francophone and bilingual care, and mentorship pathways for physicians from underrepresented groups.
