Governance
​
As a Family Health Team (FHT) we are registered as a not for profit corporation with a Board of Directors that is responsible for providing governance and oversight of the FHT. Oversight ensures the ongoing success of the organization and ensures that the FHT is meeting all the legislative requirements of a not for profit corporation. With a Mixed Governance Model, the Board is made up of both physicians that work or have worked with a FHT, as well as community members. The result of this Mixed Governance Model is a Board that is well informed on best practice within the healthcare system, and well connected with the community.
