Family Health Teams are a key piece of the provincial government's plan to build a healthcare system that promotes good health, reduces wait times and improves access to care.
The Ministry of Health and Long Term Care started implementing Family Health Teams all across Ontario in 2005 and the North York Family Health Team was incorporated in June 2007 and became fully operational in 2008.
The North York Family Health Team (NYFHT) is composed of a multidisciplinary team of Registered Nurses, Social Workers, Registered Dietitians, Nurse Practitioners and Pharmacists and 61 Family Physicians. There are approximately 60,000 patients rostered with the FHT Family Physicians.
The NYFHT is an academic Family Health Team associated with the Department of Family & Community Medicine at North York General Hospital and the University of Toronto.
After months of hard work and determination, the 7th floor has officially opened.
Hosting 6 clinical offices and over 20 physicians and various Allied Health Professionals, the NYFHT is excited in the progress we have made to make primary care more readily accessible to North York.
