Glossary of Department Names

CHSLD
Centres d'hébergement et de soins de longue durée (CHSLDs) and Maisons des aînés |
Long-Term Care Centre or a Senior Home.

Long-term care centres and senior homes are for seniors who are losing their autonomy or who need continuous medical care.

CISSS
Centre intégré de santé et de services sociaux | Integrated health and social services centres

CIUSSS
Centre intégré universitaire de santé et de services sociaux | Integrated university health and social services centres

Twenty-two integrated centers make up the Quebec health network: thirteen are integrated health and social services centres (CISSS), nine are integrated university health and social services centres (CIUSSS).

All of them ensure the accessibility, continuity and quality of services for the population in their area. These institutions can offer services in several facilities, which are the physical places where health and social services are provided, including hospital centres, CLSCs and CHSLDs.

Unlike the CISSS, CIUSSS is located in a health region where a university offers a full undergraduate medical program or operates a centre designated as a university institute in the social field. Therefore, only the integrated centre that meets this criterion can use the term "university" in its name.

CLSC
Centre local de services communautaires | Local community service centre for free health and social services

GAMF

GMF-R
Groupe de médecine de famille accès/réseau (GMF-A/R) | Access-Network Family Medicine Group is a group of family doctors and other health and social services professionals who work in close collaboration to meet semi-urgent or simple urgent needs. These have replaced walk-in clinics, as appointments to GMF-Rs can be made on the same day.
