PCN For Patients
A Primary Care Network (PCN) is a collaborative effort between family physicians, nurse practitioners, clinicians, and allied healthcare providers dedicated to improving patient healthcare experiences. Created by the BC Ministry of Health, our PCN is a partnership between the Shuswap North Okanagan Division of Family Practice, Interior Health, and Indigenous partner organizations. Our mission is to empower individuals of all ages with essential healthcare information, ensuring seamless collaboration between care providers for a comprehensive primary healthcare experience.
