It delivers a broad spectrum of preventative, promotive, curative and palliative care organized around the health needs and expectations of people rather than diseases.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elaborating further, he noted that, \u201cIn so doing, it connects people with trusted providers who address their ongoing health needs throughout their lives while effectively following up to ensure improvement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Humphreys emphasized that the dynamics of formalizing an internationally-recognized and, more specifically, a regionally-recognized and standardized family medicine system, must promote health equity among racially, socio-economically and ethnically diverse people.<\/p>\n<p>This necessitates a participatory process that is championed by top-level advocacy; inclusive of the political, social, professional, and community engagement and accountability mechanisms.<\/p>\n<p>He added that it must be sustainable, diverse and competently aware of systemic biases, while fostering tolerance for ethnic, racial and socioeconomic identity; in addition to welcoming protection, gender, and inclusion standards \u2013 particularly for these vulnerable groups.<\/p>\n<p>The Montegut Scholarship was established in 2010 by the American Board of Family Medicine Foundation in honor of Alain Montegut, M.D. \u2013 a member of the board of directors of the American Board of Family Medicine from 2006-2010 \u2013 whose career has been devoted to developing high quality family medicine practice internationally, especially in underserved areas.<\/p>\n<p>The Montegut Scholarship award is done in partnership with the World Organization of Family Doctors (WONCA), the WHO-recognized authoritative accrediting and academic voice of primary care medicine globally.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Humphreys was the WONCA-featured doctor in 2012 and was awarded the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh plaque award on behalf of his practice for his hard work and dedication towards providing continuing professional development as a CME coordinator for the College.<\/p>\n<p>He is member of a number of recognized regional and international bodies, including holding accredited membership with the Caribbean College of Family Physicians (CCFP) \u2013 the Caribbean equivalent of the Royal College of General Practitioners (RCGP), United Kingdom.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Humphreys is a CCFP Triennial Award recipient for two consecutive triennial periods.<\/p>\n<p>In 2004, Dr. Humphreys received the UNESCO\/Government of Antigua and Barbuda-Ministry of Education honor award for outstanding contribution to the improvement of literacy and the development of the literary arts in Antigua &amp; Barbuda.<\/p>\n<p>In 2010, he received the COG Honor Award for humanitarian work done in Haiti during the devastating earthquake.<\/p>\n<p>In 2011, Dr. Humphreys was the recipient of the\u00a0<i>Dr. Otis Samuel Powell Jr Clinical Science Award<\/i>\u00a0for demonstrating outstanding clinical skills and knowledge, and exhibition of the ideals of professionalism and excellence in patient care.<\/p>\n<p>Later in 2013, he received the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh Scholarship Award.
