SUMMARY:Clinical Application of the Long-Term Care (LTC) Fracture Prevention Recommendations for Frail Older Adults
DESCRIPTION:Long-term care (LTC) residents are more dependent\, frail and vulnerable\, and require more complex care than community-dwelling older adults. Yet many interventions intended to reduce fracture risk are not used consistently in LTC\, and clinical practice guidelines for osteoporosis have focused on the care of adults living in the community. This program aims to address existing care gaps by illustrating the application of pharmacological and non-pharmacological fracture prevention recommendations with frail older adults in LTC. After active engagement in this program\, participants will be better able to: \n\n\n\n\nAssess fracture risk using Fracture Risk Scale\n\n\n\nApply evidence-based recommendations for fracture prevention in LTC\n\n\n\nRecognize challenges and barriers to implement the recommendations and use enablers\n\n\n\n\nPresented by:\n\n\n\nAlexandra Papaioannou BScN\, MD\, MSc\, FRCP(C)\, FACP Professor of Medicine/Geriatric Medicine\, McMaster University Executive Director\, GERAS Centre\, Hamilton Health Sciences \n\n\n\nSidney Feldman\, MD\, CCFP\, FCFP  Chief\, Department of Family and Community Medicine\, Baycrest Health Sciences Associate Professor\, Family and Community Medicine\, University of Toronto \n\n\n\nDelivered in collaboration with the Ontario Osteoporosis Strategy. \n\n\n\nThere is no cost to attend. This one-credit-per-hour Group Learning program has been certified by the College of Family Physicians of Canada and the Ontario Chapter for up to 1 Mainpro+ credit.

SUMMARY:Antimicrobial Stewardship in Primary Care: Audit and Feedback to Improve Antibiotic Prescribing
DESCRIPTION:Antimicrobial resistance is a rising global public health crisis with an estimated 1.27 million attributable deaths per year worldwide. Overuse and misuse of antibiotics are important modifiable drivers of rising drug-resistant infections. The majority of antibiotics are prescribed by primary care physicians. Peer comparison audit and feedback on antibiotic prescribing is a potentially scalable and effective intervention shown to improve antibiotic prescribing. Public Health Ontario\, in partnership with OCFP and Choosing Wisely Canada\, provides mailed antibiotic prescribing feedback letters to eligible family physicians in Ontario. This session will review recent evidence for this work as well as offer an opportunity for questions and feedback. \n\n\n\nLearning objectives: \n\n\n\n\nReview the evidence base for antibiotic prescribing feedback in primary care\n\n\n\nDiscuss the interpretation and limitations of the data\n\n\n\nProvide a venue for questions and feedback from Ontario family physicians regarding this work\n\n\n\n\nModerator:\n\n\n\nDr. Jobin Varughese\, OCFP President\, Family Physician\, Interim Assistant Dean of Primary Care Education for the School of Medicine at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU)\, Brampton\, ON.  \n\n\n\nPanelists:\n\n\n\nDr. Kevin Schwartz\, MD MSc FRCPC DTM&H\, is the division head for infectious diseases at St. Joseph’s Health Centre in Toronto and co-medical director for antimicrobial stewardship at Unity Health Toronto.

SUMMARY:Authorizing Cannabis
DESCRIPTION:Since 2018\, patients have been able to access medical cannabis that has been authorized by a physician who signs a medical document.

SUMMARY:Social Prescribing: Addressing the Social Determinants of Health

SUMMARY:Clinical Application of the Long-Term Care (LTC) Fracture Prevention Recommendations for Frail Older Adults
DESCRIPTION:Long-term care (LTC) residents are more dependent\, frail and vulnerable\, and require more complex care than community-dwelling older adults. Yet many interventions intended to reduce fracture risk are not used consistently in LTC\, and clinical practice guidelines for osteoporosis have focused on the care of adults living in the community. This program aims to address existing care gaps by illustrating the application of pharmacological and non-pharmacological fracture prevention recommendations with frail older adults in LTC. After active engagement in this program\, participants will be better able to: \n\n\n\n\nAssess fracture risk using Fracture Risk Scale\n\n\n\nApply evidence-based recommendations for fracture prevention in LTC\n\n\n\nRecognize challenges and barriers to implement the recommendations and use enablers\n\n\n\n\nPresented by: \n\n\n\nAlexandra Papaioannou BScN\, MD\, MSc\, FRCP(C)\, FACP Professor of Medicine/Geriatric Medicine\, McMaster University Executive Director\, GERAS Centre\, Hamilton Health Sciences \n\n\n\nSidney Feldman\, MD\, CCFP\, FCFP  Chief\, Department of Family and Community Medicine\, Baycrest Health Sciences Associate Professor\, Family and Community Medicine\, University of Toronto \n\n\n\nPresented in collaboration with the Ontario Osteoporosis Strategy. \n\n\n\nThere is no cost to attend. This one-credit-per-hour Group Learning program has been certified by the College of Family Physicians of Canada and the Ontario Chapter for up to 1 Mainpro+ credit.
