As a Primary Care Nurse with VCH you will:
Triage, assesse, plan, implement and evaluate nursing care for patients and families who require high priority care within 24 hours. Develop and maintain partnerships with primary care providers in accordance with the local Community of Care (COC) service delivery model and primary care network. Use approved triage standards in applying critical thinking skills within safe limits of patient care.

Urgent and Primary Care Centres (UPCC) will provide care for people with unexpected, non-life-threatening conditions who need medical attention within 12-24 hours but who don't require a visit to the emergency department – this includes sprains, cuts and wounds, an infection, mild asthma attack and less serious child illness and injury. The multidisciplinary health care team will be staffed by general practitioners, nurse practitioners, registered nurses and social workers.
UPCCs are intended to be an additional service in the community, working in concert with all touch points for care to provide appropriate urgent services to patients, when and where they need it. They do not replace your Emergency nor your Family Physician access rather enhance access to urgent primary care when your doctor is not available and where you do not need emergency level care.
