What is primary team-based care?
Primary care is a model of care that supports first-contact, accessible, continuous, comprehensive and coordinated person-focused care. Within a team-based model of care, multiple health care providers from different professional backgrounds work together and with patients/clients, families, caregivers, and communities to deliver comprehensive health services across health settings.
