FREDERICTON AND CENTRAL NEW BRUNSWICK
Fredericton North Family Health Team marks 1 year of growth
The Fredericton North Family Health Team has continued to expand access to primary care since being announced as Horizon’s first collaborative care team in April 2025. Now serving about 8,300 patients, the team was originally established in 2021 as the Fredericton Northside Community Health Centre. It received provincial funding in early 2025 to support new infrastructure. This expansion enabled a larger care team, including four primary care providers and 17 additional full-time health care and support staff. The team moved into its new location in early December 2025. It has since attached nearly 1,200 new patients and prevented 800 others from losing access to primary care.
Strengthening access to primary care in Nackawic-Millville
The Nackawic Health Centre has reached a significant milestone just months after Horizon received $1.7 million in provincial funding to expand the centre’s facilities and staff. Announced in late February, the collaborative care team has attached over 900 patients in the Nackawic-Millville community, including previously unattached residents and some already rostered with a new physician. The care team will ensure every unattached resident in the community has access to a primary care provider. Several new health professionals have joined the team, including a physician and two nurse practitioners. One nurse practitioner is currently onboarding patients, while the second will join in July. Renovations are underway on a secondary clinical space within the existing facility and are expected to be completed by fall.
