SUMMARY - Community Health Centres

A refugee family walks into a community health centre, uncertain what to expect. They have no family doctor, limited English, and complex health needs. The receptionist speaks their language. The nurse practitioner takes time to understand not just their symptoms but their circumstances. A social worker connects them to settlement services. They leave with appointments scheduled, prescriptions filled at the on-site pharmacy, and a connection to a system that sees them as whole people.
