Family Health Team
The Ministry of Health & Long Term Care has funded a Family Health
Team (FHT) in the Haliburton Highlands. A partnership between the
HKPR Community Care Access Centre (CCAC), the Haliburton Highlands Health
Services (HHHS), and the Haliburton Family Health Network (Haliburton physicians)
has developed gradually, and is now providing health care to residents of Haliburton County. A group of health professionals,
including physicians, nurse practitioners, registered nurses and health
specialists work closely with each other and with community partners to
provide service to people of the Highlands.
The Haliburton FHT is located in the new medical centre called Haliburton
Highlands Health Centre, and the Minden FHT offices are located in the
second story, above the Minden Emergency Hospital.
Goals of the Family Health Team
For further information, or to join their Team, call Cheryl Kennedy at
the Haliburton Family Medical Clinic at 705-457-1212, Ext.225.
