The Vancouver Primary Care Networks brings you an online series to connect team members working together in PCNs. The goals of the series are to learn, connect and share questions and experiences to help Interprofessional Team (IPT) Clinicians and Primary Care providers referring to the IPT to optimize how they work together to support their patients. To view a summary report from the first 12 sessions click here.
These events are open to family physicians, nurse practitioners and registered nurses currently referring to the IPT.
If you’d like to learn more about the IPT or these events, please contact your Community Network Manager.
Wed. September. 10th, 2025, from 12:00 – 1:00pm – A PCN Approach to Healthy Bodies Part 2
Join us at the next session in this engagement series! Click here to find out more and register.
In each session, members of the IPT (social workers, occupational therapists, clinical counsellors, clinical pharmacists, and registered dieticians) use different approaches to share information, hold discussions, ask questions, to dive into ways of supporting team based approaches to care. This is a chance for providers to engage directly with our allied health professionals to understand each disciplinary approach and help foster a team-based approach to patient care. Sessions will be hosted by the Community Network Managers on Zoom.
This series is planned and supported by an interdepartmental working group which includes IPT Clinicians, the Clinical Operations Supervisor, member of the PCN Engagement Team and a Community Network Manager.
