Community Paramedicine programs are designed to serve the needs of their community. In collaboration with existing services, The Renfrew County Community Paramedics acts as an extension of primary care. Paramedics are well positioned to identify and bridge gaps in the health care system to provide patient centred case. The basis of the program is to be accessible, proactive, responsive and safe.
