Providing practical solutions for best practice in primary care.
The Centre for Effective Practice (CEP) is a federally-incorporated, not-for-profit organization enabling appropriate care in primary care through the development and implementation of relevant, evidence-based programs and tools.
Founded in 2004 by the Department of Family and Community Medicine, University of Toronto, CEP works to address the growing gap between best evidence and current primary care practices by identifying barriers to appropriate interprofessional primary care and producing practical solutions to address these barriers.
What We Do
- Identify barriers to appropriate interprofessional primary care
- Produce practical solutions to address these barriers
- Engage primary care practitioners and their interprofessional teams in the implementation of appropriate care
- Collaborate with leading partners to increase impact and system-wide change
Our Approach
At CEP we work collaboratively with health consumers and leading interprofessional clinicians, academics, researchers and policy makers to effectively meet the needs of our clients and primary care practitioners to close the gap between best evidence and current practices.
