This paper discusses the challenges that those living with complex chronic disease present to the Canadian health-care system. The literature suggests home care and the management of complex chronic disease can together ease many of the present and future pressures facing the health-care system in dealing with this new health-care phenomenon. A review of current literature and dialogue with key informants reveals that the current level of investment and the present policy environment are not sustainable to support the health-care system. In this paper, changes to policy and resource allocation to the home care sector are suggested to help manage complex chronic disease and thus improve the effectiveness of the Canadian health-care system. A case is made for a reorganization and increased commitment to the home care sector for a more efficient and patient-centred health-care delivery system.

Physician wellness and burnout have long been important topics in Canadian health care. Though burnout presents in various occupations, physicians experience unique professional challenges that predispose them to experience burnout. Elements inciting this chronic condition are introduced early in medical education, reinforced during residency training, and poorly addressed during clinical practice. Substantial evidence demonstrates that burnout has significant and undesirable impacts on patient outcomes and care delivery. Physician quality of life and well-being as well as health care spending are also negatively impacted by burnout. However, there is an ongoing need to apply these research results in the clinical setting. Currently, research suggests that individual, cultural, and organizational factors play a role in the development and maintenance of burnout. Best practices to prevent burnout and manage its effects, including interventions during medical education and greater work autonomy, are required to address barriers to wellness at each of these levels.
