    Are you someone who has a real passion for helping others? We currently have an exciting opportunity for you to bring your excellent work ethic to our Primary Care department.

    Within the context of a person and family-centered model of care and in accordance with Northern Health's vision for an idealized system of services built on a foundation of Primary Health Care, the Primary Care Occupational Therapist (OT) works collaboratively with interprofessional teams to develop a plan of care and deliver health services coordinated through the Primary Care Home.

    The OT provides competent, safe, and ethical care for people and their families in settings such as physician practices, homes, facilities, and communities, and applies the principles of evidence-informed practice to achieve effective outcomes related to their participation in valued activities.

    Through clinical assessment, treatment planning, recommended interventions, and follow up, the occupational therapist contributes to the fulfillment of the overall plan of care developed by the interprofessional team and informed by the person's personal goals for care.

    Primary and Community Care

    Northern Health's approach to person and family-centered care involves creating health care teams, which include your doctor or nurse practitioner and other health care professionals, to provide a range of health care services.

    The quality of care increases by providing continuity of care over time and across settings, and will result in better long-term health outcomes.

    The friendly, small town feel comes with big city amenities and a vibrant arts community. John for more information on what this energetic community has to offer.
