Coast Mountain Primary Care Network
We respectfully acknowledge the deep-rooted harm caused by the Acts of colonization. With profound gratitude, we recognize the privilege of serving and supporting our Membership and Patients within the ancestral lands of the Tsimshian, Nisga’a, and Tahltan Nations.
Our practice is guided by values of safety, respect, and reconciliation, as we humbly acknowledge the ongoing journey towards healing and understanding. We commit to actively engaging in the necessary work ahead with open hearts and minds.
Region Information
The Coast Mountain Primary Care Network (PCN) is a diverse and vibrant region encompassing the communities of Tahltan, Dease Lake Stikine, Stewart, Nisga’a Valley, Kitsumkalum, Kitselas, Terrace, Thornhill, and Lakelse Lake. The geography encompasses over 30,000 square kilometres and covers some of the most remote and complex landscapes in British Columbia, from Terrace to the Yukon and Alaskan borders.
The Coast Mountain Primary Care Network is the result of a collaborative effort following years of planning and engagement with partners including First Nations Health Authority, Kitselas Health, Kitsumkalum Health, Nisga’a Valley Health Authority, Tahltan Health, Northern Health, and the Pacific Northwest Division of Family Practice.
Coast Mountain PCN patients experience significant challenges to accessing primary care as they reside in geographically remote, rural, and weather impacted communities. These considerations are important in the context of designing the Primary Care Network.
