               3.4      HELPING TO ADVANCE ONTARIO’S PATIENTS FIRST ACTION PLAN
               Since 2014, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care has focused on “putting patients at the centre –
               the right care, right place, right time”— as a strategic priority and, more recently has been given a
               mandate to deliver coordinated and integrated care in the community and closer to home, including in
               the home. Our voluntary integration supports the ministry’s Patients First Action Plan by improving
               access and connecting services.

               We will improve access to quality care for all our patients, residents and clients by creating a new health
               network that offers the full spectrum and seamless transitions of care from primary to post-acute
               through rehabilitation, palliative care and long-term care. At the same time, we can reduce system
               fragmentation by connecting services that enables interventions earlier in the patient’s journey. For
               example, rehabilitation specialists from Providence will become involved earlier in the patient’s journey
