Gabriola Island Primary Care Network

Last updated

Gabriola is located within the Coast Salish Nations whose territory we live and work on. Gabriola Island is the territory of the Snuneymuxw First Nation. We respect the longstanding relationships that Coast Salish and Hul’qumi’num speaking Nations have to this land, as they are the original caretakers.

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.

Gabriola PCN brings together primary care practitioners, allied health, Island Health and community services to help meet the health care needs of Gabriola residents. This includes people living in the following communities:

  • Gabriola
  • Mudge Island
  • DeCoursey Island

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.
