[Issues and challenges of primary care medicine: The Northern Vaud Project].

On the face of challenges, particularly related to population aging, increasing complexity of medicine, demographic changes, and uneven geographical distribution of general practitioners (GPs), the healthcare system needs to be reimagined to ensure and maintain efficient care and address the chronic burden on emergency services. A concept of integrated community-based continuity of care, aimed at training future GPs, is one of the solutions proposed by the Northern Vaud Hospital Institutions. This project contributes to strengthening the interface and transition between the hospital and community medicine. Through numerous external mandates, it creates synergies with various socio-healthcare stakeholders in the Northern Vaud region.
