Note: The collaborative care model on PEI is a province-wide initiative that will involve service delivery changes in all areas of the health system including acute care, long term care, home care, and primary health care. This model sees teams of providers working collaboratively to their full scope of practice to ensure the patient’s, client’s, or resident’s needs are met in a coordinated, consistent, and timely matter. The collaborative care model has not yet been implemented in all unit/work sites. Staffing levels may change upon its introduction and will be in accordance with respective collective agreements and union consultation.

We would like to thank all applicants for their interest; however, only those who are selected for an interview will be contacted.
