Abstract | Introduction: More than 6 million Canadians live in rural areas (approximately 20% of the population) and emergency services are a critical safety net for them. Objectives: We want to create, in Baie-Saint-Paul (rural emergency department, Québec, Canada), an experimental milieu where all stakeholders develop, implement and evaluate solutions to address the problems that beset their environment. Method: The Living Lab will rely on the quadruple aim approach to improve health system performance and will use a multimethod approach based on the philosophy of open and user-driven innovation. Three pilot projects will be implemented (quality of work life programme, computed tomography implementation study and telemedicine in ambulances). Other possible solutions will be evaluated and prioritised ( Conclusion: We are confident that this Living Lab will contribute to saving lives, will improve the quality of work life for rural healthcare professionals, and will inspire similar innovation internationally. |
