Interprofessional Primary Care Team
About this Program
The Interprofessional Primary Care Team at Scarborough Centre for Healthy Communities offers coordinated care through a team of health professionals. We aim to improve access and support for clients with complex needs. Referrals can come from a doctor, nurse practitioner, or be self-initiated for most services.
Any person needing inter-professional services in the Scarborough community can be referred. Clients can expect to enter a community of care-focused providers who will work together to help achieve their health and wellness goals.
The IPPC team consists of Nurse Practitioners, Physiotherapists, Social Workers, Registered Dieticians, Registered Nurses, Mental Health Case Workers, Harm Reduction Workers, Chiropodist, Foot Care Nurse, and Medical Secretaries.
