Points North Family Health Team/Machin Medical Group

Points North Family Health Team/Machin Medical Group We are a primary care organization located in Vermilion Bay Servicing the Municipality of Machin. The Points North Family Health Team is patient centred.

Patients will have access to a number of primary health care services from a variety of team members, including a family doctor. The team approach means service is relatively easy to access on a timely basis. Patients will be followed by a doctor or nurse practitioner, but depending on their clinical needs, they may be referred to other health care professionals within the Family Health Team. Pati

ents may also self-refer to a Social Service worker. The team approach often allows for more time and discussion of health concerns than might be possible in a more traditional medical office setting. Also, patients will have access to additional services such as hypertension management programs, Diabetes and smoking cessation counseling.
