Brief Summary:
Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease where the immune system attacks the body by mistake causing inflammation of the joints and other body parts People with rheumatoid arthritis are at higher risk of infections heart problems and bone issues compared to others They regularly see rheumatologists arthritis care physicians to manage their disease However managing these other health problems alongside their main treatment is difficult for rheumatologists due to limited resources This clinical study is being conducted to see if adding a family doctor to a team of rheumatologists can help Rheumatologists will complete a case report form about the patients health and send them to a special family physician clinic This clinic will focus on improving vaccination against diseases heart health and bone strength They will check if patients need special vaccines to protect them from infections They will screen for heart disease using blood pressure measurements and order blood work for high cholesterol and diabetes if needed They will also review bone health and send people for tests to check their bone density if needed A change in routines and medications may be recommended after their checkup Rheumatologists will complete another case report about the patients health 6 months after their family doctor appointment The study will assess how these markers of health management improve after this family doctor joins the team It hopes to prove that this new way of working in the community will give people with rheumatoid arthritis better protection against certain infections heart problems and weak bones
