Care Designed Around You

As an SCPCN patient, you have access to a wide range of allied health professionals — all working alongside your family physician. Our services are designed to complement your primary care and help you manage your health proactively and confidently.

Note: Access to most SCPCN services requires a referral from your SCPCN member physician or Primary Care Behavioural Health Provider. Contact your doctor's office to get connected.

Mental Health Services

Our registered counsellors and mental health professionals offer short-term, focused support for anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions — all accessible through a referral from your SCPCN physician.

Nutrition Services

Registered dietitians provide personalized nutrition guidance for weight management, diabetes, cardiovascular health, digestive conditions, and more. Group workshops and individual sessions available.

Social Work

Our social workers help patients navigate complex life circumstances — from housing and income support to caregiver burnout and chronic illness coping — with compassionate, practical guidance.

Movement & Exercise Services

Exercise specialists design safe, evidence-based programs to help patients build strength, manage chronic conditions, and improve overall physical function and quality of life.

Primary Care Behavioural Health Services

Our Primary Care Behavioural Health Providers work alongside family physicians to offer timely, short-term support for a wide range of mental and physical health concerns. They help patients manage challenges, make healthy behaviour changes and improve their overall well-being.

More Ways We Support Your Health

Health Education Workshops

SCPCN offers group-based health education workshops on topics like managing diabetes, stress reduction and healthy eating. These sessions are practical, evidence-informed, and designed for real life.

Same-Day Access Clinic

When you have an urgent health concern that can't wait, SCPCN's Same-Day Access Clinic supports patients when same-day appointments aren't available with your regular physician. It ensures you can see a healthcare provider quickly — without heading to an emergency room. This service helps manage minor illnesses & infections, urgent prescription renewals, minor injuries & procedures and time-sensitive health questions with the same quality of care you'd expect from your own family doctor.

Call 403-668-8600. Our team will confirm availability, book your visit and send you an email confirmation with intake form to be completed in advance.

About Us

Who We Are

The South Calgary Primary Care Network was established under Alberta's Primary Care Network framework, a province-wide initiative designed to strengthen family medicine and improve access to primary health services for Albertans. SCPCN operates as a not-for-profit organization governed by a board of physician members who are deeply committed to the health of the communities they serve.

We believe that the strongest foundation of any healthcare system is a well-supported, well-resourced family medicine network.

About Us

The Patient's Medical Home

What Is a Patient's Medical Home?

A Patient's Medical Home (PMH) is a model of primary care where patients have a consistent, trusted relationship with their family physician and a coordinated team of health professionals. It's more than a place — it's an approach to care built around continuity, coordination, and collaboration.

SCPCN supports the PMH model across all member clinics, helping practices build the team-based structures and processes that make truly integrated primary care possible.

Our Approach to Team-Based Care

At SCPCN, we believe the best outcomes happen when your family doctor doesn't work alone. Our network embeds allied health professionals — dietitians, counsellors, social workers, and kinesiologists — directly into the primary care experience.

1

Access

Timely connections to the right provider at the right time.

2

Continuity

Ongoing relationships with a consistent care team over time.

3

Coordination

Seamless communication between your physician and allied health team.
