Benefits of Joining a Family Health Team (FHT)
The following are a few of the benefits of joining a FHT:
- Team approach to your care thereby broadening the knowledge/skill base
- Shared responsibility for your care amongst clinicians
- Expertise and services of specialized health care providers
- Time to discuss managing your chronic illness (e.g. diabetes, depression and asthma)
- Access to primary care providers during extended evening & weekend hours for urgent problems
- An electronic medical record keeping system allowing Taddle Creek clinicians to communicate effectively regarding the care they provide
Note: At this time Taddle Creek FHT's nurse practitioners are accepting new patient applications. Our nurse practitioners are located at our Bay and College sites. If partnering with a nurse practitioner on your care is something you would like to explore contact one of our Bay and College Sites to make a new patient appointment.
