Every RUISSS聽from the province's four faculties of medicine has the mandate to contribute to the coordination of healthcare, teaching and research offered by each faculty of medicine and their respective University Hospital Centre, their CIUSSS, CISSSS and health centres.
In the case of RUISSS聽91社区, these are the 91社区 Health Centre (MUHC), 2 CIUSS, 3 CISSS and聽three other health centres.
The RUISSS 91社区 territory includes 1.9 million people spanning 7 regions. Health determinants 鈥� such as revenue, education, social environment and social support, available health services and culture 鈥� vary according to each region. Additionally, the shortage of healthcare professionals is a distinct problem requiring its own solutions.
Since RUISSS 91社区 was established, its members have worked to offer new opportunities for learning, to promote residents鈥� training in the regions, to increase skills in telehealth, and to create clinical coordination. All of this allows patients to be treated as close to their homes as possible within the constraints of available resources and expertise. RUISSS 91社区's goals remain unchanged: to be a role model for the continuum of care, research, teaching and evaluation of technologies and to help improve the health and well-being of all Quebecers.
