The Sherwood Park – Strathcona County Primary Care Network (PCN) is one of over 30 PCNs operating in Alberta. PCNs represent Alberta’s strategy to reform the delivery of primary care. Primary care is a term used to describe the care that patients receive when they first contact the health system. Primary care services are typically provided by a family physician.
The Sherwood Park – Strathcona County PCN is a joint venture between a group of family physicians, representing participating physicians in Strathcona County, and Alberta Health Services (AHS) - Edmonton Zone who come together to implement a business plan to improve the quality of care and access to services for the people of Strathcona County. Located in Sherwood Park, this PCN draws its potential enrollee population of approximately 90,000 from both suburban and rural communities in Strathcona County.
