Quality Team Coaching for Rural BC

In the Quality Team Coaching for Rural BC program (QTC4RBC), rural health care teams work with an ICF-certified coach to identify their values and priorities, develop their collective and individual skills, and access resources to help build a culture of safety, learning and quality that leads to positive patient and provider experiences and high-quality patient care. The program provides: 

• An in-person coaching workshop; 
• Up to four virtual team coaching sessions after the workshop and up to three one-on-one coaching sessions for leadership;
• A concierge service linking your team to programs and resources in BC;
• Financial support up to $40,000 that may be used for further team educational opportunities or to cover expenses of a quality improvement project. Note this funding is not eligible to be used for remuneration or backfill; 
• Opportunity to work on a quality project of your choosing with mentorship from a quality advisor;
• This Group Learning program has been certified by the College of Family Physicians of Canada for up to 21.75 Mainpro+ credits.

Rural health care teams are eligible to apply for this program - Any member of the local health care team is encouraged to take the lead on developing an application including occupational therapists.

Applications from RSA A or B communities will be prioritized. At least one physician must be part of the application team (or 20% if the team is more than 8). Interprofessional and leadership participation in the program significantly strengthens the application.
