Family physicians in the McLeod River Primary Care Network (PCN) have joined together with Alberta Health Services and other health professionals to better coordinate, and improve access to, the delivery of primary health services for their patients. Health professionals may include, among other regulated health professionals, nurses, nurse practitioners, social workers, pharmacists, mental health workers, exercise specialists or dietitians. Primary care is the first point of contact that a person has with the health system- the point where people receive care for most of their everyday health needs.
