Co-leadership activities include (but not limited to) meeting with physicians, family practice teams and other key stakeholders in the network to support activities associated with implementation of the Health Home Model.
4. Advise and assist the Zone Department Head in family physician recruitment and retention within the Network. This includes activities such as:
a. Contacting retiring physicians, reviewing data gathered about their practice, making recommendations regarding replacements.

6. Attend meetings of Network physicians (where there are meetings) as required either accompanying the Zone Department Head or attending in their stead.
7. Liaise with the regional hospital and CEC/UTC site leads in the network where applicable through the Network Council and on an ad hoc basis.
8. Assess minor complaints or SIMS reports concerning family physicians within the network and refer to the Zone Department Head as indicated. This would include activities such as initial trouble shooting and data gathering, resolving minor complaints, referring more significant issues to Department Head or ZMED. Participate in respectful workplace responsibilities as needed in conjunction with the Department Head.
9. Chair meetings of the Network Family Practice Council on a regular basis (every 4-6 weeks) in addition to biannual department meetings with the family physicians of the Network.
