The Cortes Community Health Association, as a member of the Discovery Islands Community Health Centre planning team, is hosting presentations by Marguerite Vickery, our project lead, and Val St John and Catherine Aw, leaders from BC Association of Community Health Centres.
All of the above are partners of the DICHC planning team along with reps from both First Nations groups on Quadra and Cortes, the CCHA, SNCA at Surge, QI Health Society, and the Primary Care Network from CR Division of Family Practice.
These presentations are about the DICHC project to develop an application to the Ministry of Health for a multi campus CHC using the present health facilities and programs already in place on our islands, and about Community Health Centres in BC in general.
