How it works...

  • Your family doctor will refer you to the Camrose PCN Prevention and Chronic Disease Management Program where a team of healthcare providers will assist you in managing your health concerns.
  • Your initial visit will take about 1 hour and you have follow up visits that can take up to 1/2 hour.
  • During your visits, you will work together with us to make a health plan that is just right for you. We also continue to work with your family doctor to provide you with the best care.

Who you may see...

  • The Camrose PCN Prevention and Chronic Disease Management Program team consists of a registered nurse, pharmacist, dietitian, exercise specialist, behavioural health consultant and your family doctor.
  • Other healthcare and community providers may be consulted and referred to when needed.
