Description

Primary Health Care Nurse Practitioners (NPs) are Registered Nurses who have completed additional university education to expand their scope of practice.  They work collaboratively with family physicians and the allied health care professionals to provide accessible, comprehensive, holistic care to patients of all ages.  NPs improve care through health promotion, disease prevention, and chronic disease management.  The NP team also provides Acute and Episodic Care to support quick access for time-sensitive concerns.

Our Nurse Practitioners all work as general primary care NPs, but also have their own special programs and interests, such as cardiac care, women’s health, prenatal care, sexual health, geriatrics, etc.

How do I join?

If you are a rostered patient and in need of mental health/counselling supports please speak to your health care provider about a referral, or you may request this service on your own by calling in to the clinic.
