Nurse Practitioner

A Nurse Practitioner (NP) is a highly educated healthcare professional with foundational training and education in nursing.

NPs play a unique and complementary role in the healthcare system, practicing autonomously while integrating advanced clinical knowledge, diagnostic skills, and specialized expertise. They are qualified to diagnose, treat, and manage a wide range of health conditions, from minor ailments to complex illnesses.

Rooted in whole-person and patient-centered care, NPs consider the social determinants of health to provide comprehensive and individualized patient care. Their practice reflects both their nursing background and advanced medical knowledge, allowing them to effectively meet diverse patient needs.

After Hours Care

If I am sick after work hours do I have to go to the hospital?

If you think it's an emergency, you should go to the nearest hospital. However, you should be aware that there are several alternatives for you and your family after hours.

For example, our Family Health Team offers extended hours Monday through Thursday and Saturday. We would advise you to call us prior to visiting a clinic.

Telehealth Ontario also provides free access to a registered nurse 24/7 at 1-866-797-0000. A nurse can provide both health advice on a specific concern or general health information. They do not diagnose and do not replace your physician.
