Canadian Inpatient Orthogeriatric Models of Care: A Mixed Methods Survey of Facilitators and Barriers

The survey found that clinical leadership, hospital prioritization, and available funding are imperative to establishing OGPs. Limitations include the survey being distributed only to CGS members, a lower response rate, and respondents predominantly from academic centres in Ontario. Further qualitative data from other specialties (for example, orthopedics) and greater representation from community hospitals would be helpful to understand additional perceived barriers and facilitators.
