Family Health Team

Family Health Teams use a patient-centered approach to primary health care that brings together doctors, nurse practitioners, registered nurses, social workers, dieticians, pharmacists, and mental health clinicians, as well as other health-care professionals and support staff to coordinate the highest possible quality of care for patients when they need it. Family Health Teams are a key component of Ontario’s health care plan to reduce wait times, improve access to primary care, and keep our residents and community healthy.

The family physicians at The Peterborough Clinic formed their Family Health Organization in 2006. They are proud to be a member of the Peterborough Family Health Team — a non-profit organization that was created in 2005 to act as the coordinating agency for the five Peterborough Family Health Organizations.
