Since 2015, the Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux (MSSS) has made it a strategic priority to integrate the partnership with users and families model across Quebec’s health system. Indeed, user and family partnership is an integral part of the Plan stratégique 2015‐2020 du MSSS, and has been materialized as a result of the Cadre de référence de l’approche de partenariat entre les usagers, leurs proches et les acteurs en santé et en services sociaux.
The CEPPP is working with the Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux (MSSS) in the context of a provincial call for projects to support the implementation, the evaluation, and the dissemination of results of 21 projects on user and family partnership. All of the projects are implemented across the public health and social services network in Quebec.
