Supporting attachment for patients with complex needs

Jan 31, 2024

Our PCN has developed an internal process to help patients with complex needs who don’t have a family physician to find a suitable family physician within our network.

Referrals come from various outside agencies, such as AHS and local pediatric initiatives. Physician Liaisons then:

  • Identify which physician members would be a good match based on the patient’s needs and location
  • Reach out to the members to help these patients find a medical home

We appreciate the compassion and willingness demonstrated by several members who have accepted these patients.

By participating in this process, you can help improve the health outcomes and quality of life of patients with complex needs.

If you are interested in learning more or taking on patients with complex needs, please reach out to your Physician Liaison.
