East Kootenay Primary Care Network
The East Kootenay Primary Care Network (EKPCN) is working to improve the health of the population through timely access to comprehensive, person-centred, team-based care that is equitable and culturally safe. Learn more about how the EKPCN and family physicians are working together to ensure all East Kootenay residents have a home base for their everyday health care needs.
Shared Care
Shared Care brings family physicians, specialists, allied health providers, and community partners together to improve health-care experiences, processes, and outcomes. By strengthening collaboration, communication, and coordination of care across the health system, Shared Care initiatives help create better, person-centred care in the East Kootenay while supporting stronger relationships between health-care professionals.
Peer Support Initiative
The East Kootenay Division of Family Practice offers a regional Peer Support Initiative designed to provide non-clinical, short-term emotional support to EK physicians facing work or life-related stressors. Our diverse team of peer supporters consists of physicians from across the East Kootenay, each trained to offer safe, confidential, non-judgmental conversations.
EK MOA Network
This initiative empowers Medical Office Assistants (MOAs) to grow personally, professionally, and educationally. By encouraging your MOA to join the EKMOA Network, you’re boosting their skills, confidence, and job satisfaction—and that positivity flows right back into your clinic.
Other Regional Initiatives:
The EK Division gives family physicians the opportunity to drive the change they want to see. We have a broad range of regional networks, projects, and system change initiatives that physicians have led through the EK Division.
