Vanderhoof Primary Care Network

Last updated

The District of Vanderhoof acknowledges the ancestral lands of the Dakelh people including the Saik’uz First Nation and honors them as the original people on the land.

Overview

A Primary Care Network (PCN) is a community-based network of health care professionals and clinics who plan and deliver the health care needs of a community.

Vanderhoof PCN and the Northern Interior Rural Division are working with local clinics to help connect people to a primary care provider, either a family doctor or nurse practitioner. This includes people living in and around Vanderhoof and the Nechako Community Health Services Area.

Find a family doctor or nurse practitioner

If you need a primary care provider, register on the Health Connect Registry to get matched with a family doctor or nurse practitioner in your community.
