Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  • What is an Ontario Health Team?

    Ontario Health Teams are being introduced to provide a new way of organizing and delivering care that is more connected to patients in their local communities. Under Ontario Health Teams, healthcare providers (including hospitals, doctors and home and community care providers) work as one coordinated team – no matter where they provide care. Visit the Ontario Ministry of Health’s website to learn more. 

  • How can I get a new family doctor?

    Ontario Health Teams are a new model of coordinated care between health and service providers. Our OHT is not a new healthcare provider/clinic.


    If you do not have a family doctor or nurse practitioner anywhere in Ontario, contact Health Care Connect to register.


    Call Health811 by dialling 811, or visit www.ontario.ca/healthcareconnect to learn more and register. 


    There are several after hours and urgent care clinics in the region, along with many virtual care options. Visit www.klhoht.ca/how-can-we-help-you to learn more about accessing local health services if you do not have a primary care provider. 


    If you experience a medical emergency, proceed directly to the Emergency Department at any local hospital or call 911 for assistance.
