of person-centered care. The goal of this studywas to gain a comprehensive understanding of patient and care partner experiences and expectations of care at a Primary Care Memory Clinic originating at the Centre for Family Medicine Family Health Team (CFFMFHT) for the purpose of determining aspects of care most highly valued when care is delivered by a family physician-led multidisciplinary team in the primary care setting.Methods:This study reports on data collected from 25 semi-structured interviews with patients and care partners attending the CFFM-FHT Primary Care Memory Clinic. Data was organized using an iteratively developed codebook within NVivo software. Data analysis focused on emerging themes related to patient and caregiver values, beliefs, and ideas regarding the delivery of dementia care. Results: The vast majority of participants were very satisfied with the care received. Key themes identifiedwere (i) the importance of access to accurate information at their discretion; (ii) the presence of a multidisciplinary team which improved communication and allowed for holistic exploration of medical and psychosocial needs; and (iii) provision of continuous access to the care team which mitigated stress and anxiety between appointments an ‘invisible safety net’. Conclusions:Amongst patients and care partners attending a Primary Care Memory Clinic, the most highly valued elements of care were identified. These findings can be used to inform the development of person-centred programs to meet the needs of persons with dementia and their care partners within primary care practice.
