About NPLC’s
A Bold Step Forward
Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinics (NPLC) are a bold step forward in primary health-care delivery in Ontario with a new model of care that enables Nurse Practitioners to practice to their full specialization and scope. The NPLC model recognizes that Nurse Practitioners contribution to the health care system is vital and necessary if Ontario is to address the current primary health care crisis.
Principle to their mandate- NPLC’s are part of the solution to increase access to health care services for those individuals who may not have had regular access to another primary care provider ( e.g Physician).
