Management of Potential Bias Strong commitment to sustainable rural services that meet the needs of rural residents (including providers)
Have both led and been involved in primary research projects yielding evidence to inform rural health service modeling and planning
Have approached the development of RSON from an expanded and triangulated definition of evidence including ◦ Individuals‟ knowledge
◦ Community-based knowledge
◦ Scientific and expert knowledge
◦ Policy and planning knowledge

Objectives 1) Introduce the context of rural surgical and maternity care in
BC and illustrate with 2 patient journeys
2) Discuss Networks as a mechanism to meeting the needs of rural residents and describe component parts
3) What networks can deliver
4) „We don‟t know what we don‟t know‟: learning through a research and evaluation lens

Rural Surgical & Obstetrical Networks: A Rural Health Services Imperative
“Whereas the formalization of interprofessional service networks between small surgical programs and those in regional and tertiary settings through network models of rural surgical care is the optimal health human resources solution to meet the surgical needs of rural residents, we recommend that network models of integrated rural surgical services be established and maintained by all key professions in rural Canada.”

Component Parts Increased Scope and Volume for local services (necessary for sustainability)
Clinical Coaching and Training (for rural teams at smaller volume rural sites to maintain and improve their skills sets through collaboration with specialists at regional sites; enhances CQI)
Remote Presence Technology (enables teams, separated by distance and by training, to stand shoulder to shoulder and operate together/clinical coaching/CQI/benefit for ER, Critical Care & trauma)
Continuous Quality Improvement
Evaluation (network development, process/surgical outcomes)

Anticipated Outcomes 1) Increased access to health care choices for BC‟s rural communities;
2) Increased „closer to home‟ access to surgery and obstetrical services for patients in rural communities;
3) Increased sustainability of rural health care programs particularly those with smaller volume surgical and obstetrical services;
4) Increased ability to recruit and retain health care providers for BC‟s rural communities;
5) Increased provider satisfaction;
6) Increased access to screening procedures for BC‟s rural communities;
7) A greater understanding of the holistic/comprehensive cost-efficiencies of rural surgical networks in meeting surgical demand;
8) A greater understanding of the efficacy of networks on rural health care outcomes and their ability to reduce wait times throughout the province;
9) Enhanced quality of rural health services for rural citizens through the development of a multi-professional CQI system appropriate to the privileging of rural smaller volume generalist, surgical and perinatal services;

Moving forward How do we engage with regional (HA) planning to actualize the networks?
