Dave Shields thinks that's one of the selling points that will draw doctors to his underserviced community.

A CHC looked like the right fit for this community, says interim board chair Dave Shields.Operating in Ontario for 30 years now, CHCs are managed by boards selected from the community.They use an integrated team approach to primary care.Depending on health care needs, a patient could see a family physician, a nurse practitioner, a registered nurse, a social worker, a chiropodist or a dietitian, among others.There are currently more than 80 centres in the province.

"When government is talking to the OMA about primary care reform - and they're only talking to the OMA - it only gets OMA solutions"

Dave Shields thinks that's one of the selling points that will draw doctors to his underserviced community.Not only do doctors have the chance to spend the time they need with patients - because they're on salary - but they don't have the administrative headaches of a private practice.
