Doctors of BC Position: Doctors of BC recommends that the BC Government formally recognize caregivers as a key partner in health care delivery and require the consideration of caregiver needs in health care and social service planning and provision. In addition, Doctors of BC identifies other potential areas for enhanced caregiver support including access to respite care, patient/system navigation, and financial assistance programs.
