Sea to Sky Primary Care Network

Last updated

The Sea to Sky Primary Care Network acknowledges that the land on which we live and work is the unceded traditional territories of the Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh), and xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations and we are grateful for the opportunity to do so.

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.

The Sea to Sky Primary Care Network team is 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 the following communities:

  • Horseshoe Bay
  • Furry Creek
  • Lions Bay
  • Squamish
  • Squamish Nation Communities
  • Whistler

Find a family doctor or nurse practitioner

The Health Connect Registry  is the primary tool used by healthcare providers to add patients to their practice. Wait times will vary based on each doctor and nurse practitioner's capacity.
