The Health TAPESTRY approach has been taken-up by partners throughout the country, using the approach in a wide variety of projects and with a variety of populations. Each project applies the elements of Health TAPESTRY in a way that make the most sense for their community. Common threads and collaborations weave these diverse projects together.
Bringing Health TAPESTRY to multiple locations allows us to evaluate how different primary health care teams, health care systems, and community organizations — working with different populations of people — can impact results. We continue to broaden the range of places where we are helping people.
In Health TAPESTRY Ontario, conducted in 2018-2019, the participating sites were:
- Superior Family Health Team, Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario
- Niagara North Family Health Team, Niagara on the Lake, Ontario
- McMaster Family Health Team, Hamilton, Ontario
- Dufferin Area Family Health Team, Orangeville, Ontario
- Windsor Family Health Team, Windsor, Ontario
- Harrow Health Centre Family Health Team, Harrow, Ontario
