Clinician's Commentary on Maharaj et al.

Primary health care (PHC) addresses a community's main health problems by providing preventive, curative, and rehabilitative services.2 It also develops services based on economic, sociocultural, and political conditions.2 Maharaj and colleagues1 described how physiotherapists in Ontario have contributed to the evolution of PHC in this province. Specifically, they studied the perceived barriers to and facilitators of integrating physiotherapists into PHC teams. They interviewed physiotherapists hired into PHC organizations across the province after 2014 and analyzed the transcripts from the semi-structured interviews using qualitative, descriptive methods.
