Our Name Has Changed - May 2023
Our Vision:
A healthy empowered rural community
Our Mission:
We provide compassionate, quality healthcare to our communities in a timely, accessible and equitable manner.
Who We Are
The Listowel-Wingham and Area Family Health Team (LWA FHT) is a not-for-profit organization, funded by the Ministry of Health to provide primary care services to the residents of North Perth and North Huron and area through various healthcare services and programs. The LWA FHT amalgamated on April 1, 2021. Prior to this amalgamation, the two predecessor Family Health Teams (North Perth FHT and North Huron FHT) worked very closely together since their inceptions in approximately 2008.
We employ approximately 30 people, including Nurse Practitioners, Registered Nurses, Registered Practical Nurses, Social Workers and Mental Health Counsellors, Pharmacists and Dietitians.
The FHT partners with other local health agencies in carrying out many of our programs. These partnerships are highly valued, as they improve and enhance the quality of the programs and services. We are members of the Huron-Perth and Area Ontario Health Team (HPA OHT), a collaborative of 60+ healthcare organizations in Huron and Perth whose vision is to create “a sustainable people-driven system that strives to provide a positive experience for all.”
