Trent Hills Family Health Team

Now available!

Patients of the Trent Hills Family Health Team can book appointments with the Screening & Prevention Program.

Screening: Book a screening appointment with a Registered Nurse who will coordinate age-appropriate cancer and non-cancer screening tests to THFHT patients aged 50 to 75 years.

RN’s will meet with patients (virtually and/or in-person) to arrange updates to patient screening tests. Screening may include cancer screening such as mammograms (breast cancer), Pap tests (cervical cancer), and Fecal Immunochemical Tests (FIT kit that screens for colorectal cancer) and non-cancer screening tests such as blood pressure checks, blood work for cholesterol and blood sugars, and bone mineral density tests for osteoporosis.

In addition to screening, program RN’s can coordinate follow-up visits for vaccination updates, advanced care planning, or other tests that might be appropriate for some patients on a case-by-case basis (e.g., breathing tests for smokers or people with breathing conditions).

Prevention: Book coaching appointments with a Lifestyle Coach/Personal Trainer for individualized sessions on healthy living to THFHT adult patients over 18 years.

Program Co-Lead and Lifestyle Coach/Personal Trainer Shelley Aggett provides individualized coaching and support for making healthy lifestyle changes. Sessions include healthy eating, healthy movement, sleep, stress management, and social connection and community. At the initial session, you and Coach Shelley will pick which sessions are best for you!

We also have resource pages on healthy living on this website and these pages can be viewed by anyone, not just THFHT patients.

Frequently Asked Questions

If I book a screening visit with an RN do I have to do ALL of the screening tests?

No. The RN will have a conversation with you about what is recommended based on your age, gender, and health history. .

Do I need to be referred to this program by my provider (doctor or NP)?

No. THFHT patients can call the clinic themselves and book an appointment.

If my doctor is in Warkworth or Hastings, can I still book with the nurse in Campbellford?

Yes, as long as your doctor or NP is part of THFHT.

If I prefer to see my doctor or nurse practitioner, can I still do that or do I have to book with the Screening Program?

You can still book appointments with your doctor or nurse practitioner provider to request screening tests. It is your choice who you speak with.

If I am under 50 or over 75 years old, can I book an appointment?

Not with the screening program but you can book an appointment with your provider and ask to discuss screening tests that might be appropriate for you.

Are there other programs where I can get screening tests?

Yes. We have a Women and Children’s Health program where women can book for a Pap test with an RN. And we will be introducing more new programs, such as Heart and Lung Health and Older Adult Primary Care, where THFHT patients will be able to book appointments with an RN.
