Our Plan Horizon is working closely with the Government of New Brunswick to establish Family Health Teams that meet the needs of New Brunswickers. We are prioritizing the communities with the greatest need and are addressing patients without a primary provider who have the greatest health care needs first. Currently, nine Family Health Teams are in development. At the same time, Horizon’s 46 Community Health Centres are undergoing improvements and transformations to increase access and optimize capacity to serve patients within the Family Health Team model. Primary Care co-leads Dr. Ravneet ComstockPhysician Program Lead, Primary Care Dr. Ravneet Comstock is responsible for the development of strategic directions with the local departments of Family and Community Medicine. Dr. Comstock guides the transformation of primary health care and oversees matters related to the service design, quality of medical care, and professional development of its members. Dr. Comstock also collaborates with Dalhousie University’s Faculty of Medicine to effectively integrate clinical and academic responsibilities in alignment with the strategic operational activities of the Faculty and Horizon Health Network.
