ABOUT THIS KNOWLEDGE SHARING NEWSLETTER
This provincial Facility Engagement Initiative (FEI) publication responds to requests from MSAs, physician leads, project teams and health authority partners to learn from others' experiences. It is one piece of a broader, growing FEI knowledge sharing strategy that aims to increase cross-site pollination and opportunities to connect and share around common priorities to achieve success.
Note: this publication differs from the monthly Facility Engagement e-news, which shares operational updates with MSA project teams.
