The RCA’s Capacity Planning Framework and methodology support a standardized approach to planning and organizing rehabilitative care at the provincial and regional level. This approach:
- provides health care planners and providers with a simplified model to address local rehabilitative care needs now and in the future
- incorporates patient input, population data and various models of care so that plans are efficient, cost-effective and evidence-informed
- supports equitable access to rehabilitative care across the province.
