Bringing health care home
Working together, we’re helping you and your family get the health care you need closer to home. Less waiting, more comprehensive care, a healthier community for all of us.
Connecting you with local care
The qathet Primary Care Network (PCN) is a network of family practice clinics and health centres. We strive to keep you well by working in partnership with you, the community, the health authority, and First Nations health services. We do that by:
- Attracting a range of health care providers to qathet/Powell River, to increase available services and improve everyone's health.
- Linking you to available local Family Physicians or Nurse Practitioners and the nurses, social workers, and pharmacists on their team.
- Connecting you with health information and services to support you in taking charge of your own health and wellness journey.
