Questions de discussion :

1. What are the limits and benefits of technology when providing PHC services for elderly patients, such as the "Age in Place" case study? What the unique implications of this technology in low-resource settings in Canada or globally?
    
2. When imagining/designing new PHC delivery models, how should primary healthcare providers collaborate with families/informal caregivers to better tailor services to meet the needs of elderly patients?
    
3. Any general reflections on the GPC Workshop Series as a whole? What lessons have you learned? How do you see these ideas evolving into action?
