Abstract:
A single-entry system does not solve all the problems related to continuity of care, but it gives physicians the opportunity to refer those who may be at risk of losing their capacity to remain in the community to professionals who are qualified to assess the situation, to have their patients who need help access the most appropriate resources, and to have the cooperation of the continuing care workers in providing high-quality care to their patients.
