Regina's The Gardens Community Health Centre has become the first centre of its kind in the province to take a team-based approach to care. The provider team includes physicians, nurses, paramedics, therapists, a pharmacist and a nutritionist. Care plans are co-developed with patients and their families. The Seniors House Calls Team, offered by the Saskatchewan Health Authority to any Regina resident, is also providing at-home care to The Gardens’ clients who have mobility limitations and other complex care needs. The care model is part of the province's Connected Care Strategy to shift from acute care to community care and address capacity issues at hospitals. A similar health centre will be opening up in Saskatoon.
