Cover Image

This issue’s cover image of a pyramid of apples speaks to the need in family medicine for preventive care that looks more closely at individuals in the pyramid, in other words, when family physicians look beyond routine visits and instead leverage long-term relationships with patients (page 230). Articles highlighting this principle include a discussion on potential solutions for smartphone use in older adults with dementia (page 249) and a research article on improving professional capability frameworks for residents (page 257).

Image de la page couverture

L’image de la page couverture de ce numéro montrant une pyramide de pommes évoque la nécessité en médecine familiale de soins préventifs qui ciblent plus étroitement chaque individu dans la pyramide, autrement dit, lorsque les médecins de famille ne limitent pas la prévention aux rendez-vous de routine, mais misent plutôt sur leurs relations à long terme avec leurs patients (page e93). Parmi les articles qui mettent ce principe en évidence figurent une discussion sur les solutions possibles au moyen du téléphone intelligent chez les adultes plus âgés atteints de démence (page 249) et un article de recherche sur l’amélioration des cadres de capacités professionnelles à l’intention des résidents (page 258).
