As a Community Health Centre, we also provide priority access to certain individuals who are considered highly vulnerable due to their medical condition or socio-economic situation. These priority placements are generally offered through targeted partnerships with hospitals, school boards, and community organizations that serve these clients.
However, we maintain priority access for newborns, as they are particularly vulnerable if they do not have access to primary care. If you have a newborn but do not have a family doctor or a family nurse practitioner, please contact us for more information.
We understand that finding a primary care provider can be challenging and that wait times can be long. To help you in this process, we recommend that you register with Health Care Connect at: www.ontario.ca/page/find-family-doctor-or-nurse-practitioner.
