We know how important access to primary care is, and that New Brunswickers want clear, up-to-date information about what’s happening in their communities. This page provides an overview of progress, along with detailed updates on each Family Health Team, making it easier to stay informed every step of the way. As work continues, this page will be updated regularly with the latest information and milestones.

Family Health Teams Last updated: June 2026 Fredericton and upper river valley area Carleton North Family Health Team Status: Operational Patients: Approximately 1,950 patients Attachment: Accepting new patients from the wait list The Carleton North Family Health Team was established in May 2025. The team received provincial funding to transform the existing Carleton North Medical Clinic into a family health team. Funding supported infrastructure updates and the addition of several health care professionals, which has already allowed this team to onboard 250 previously unattached patients. Numerous health professionals have since joined this team, including a respiratory therapist and a social worker, and recruitment is currently underway for several more primary care providers and allied health professionals. Once these additional health professionals are in place, the team will be equipped to continue towards their goal of onboarding another 800 unattached patients by the end of 2026.
