Nurse Practitioners

Chatham-Kent Community Health Centers
You can also connect with one of Chatham-Kent's Community Health Centres. These centres offer a comprehensive approach to improving the health care of individuals, families and communities.
Home and Community Care Support Services
Ontario's Home and Community Care Support Services organizations, including the Erie St. Clair branch which covers the Chatham-Kent area, coordinate in-home and community-based care. These services assess patient care needs, deliver in-home and community-based services, provide access and referrals to other community services, and manage Ontario's long-term care home placement process. Home and Community Care Support Services collaborate with primary care providers, hospitals, Ontario Health Teams and many other health system partners to support high-quality, integrated care planning and delivery.
