Honoured to partner on the East Toronto Primary Care Navigation Clinic (PCNC) to provide hospital patients without a family doctor with direct access to primary care!
We're proud to launch the East Toronto Primary Care Navigation Clinic (PCNC), a new clinic that provides hospital patients without a family doctor with direct access to primary care! 🩺
This clinic is operated as a partnership between MGH, Flemingdon Health Centre and TNO - The Neighbourhood Organization, all members of East Toronto Health Partners Ontario Health Team.
The new clinic provides short-term primary care appointments – typically two to six visits – to support medical stabilization and connect patients with community support. During this time, clinic staff work to connect the patient to a permanent, long-term primary care provider.
This clinic also provides social prescriptions for patients who may be in need of additional support, including connections to housing, food support and more.
At this time, the East Toronto PCNC is taking internal referrals from select areas of the hospital.
“Our goal is to ensure that MGH patients who are in need of a primary care provider are quickly identified by our teams and referred to this clinic to ensure they have the supports they need after their departure from the hospital,” says Dr. Carmine Simone, Executive Vice President, Medical, Clinical Infrastructure and Partnerships at MGH.
