Perth County Paramedic Community Outreach Program

To support the Urban and Rural communities of Perth County, Perth County Paramedic Services has created the Perth County Paramedic Community Outreach Program.

This community-based Perth PCOP team will provide care, support and practical solutions for our most vulnerable populations through direct physician referral, Health System Partner Referral and Paramedic referral programs.  This team will be available for in-home visits to persons in the community who are experiencing a lack of health supports, have complex medical needs that require monitoring or whom have been identified as needing help connecting to available community supports. While working in partnership with other invaluable in-home community agencies, the PCOP team will be available Monday to Friday to provide assistance to anyone requiring care and support.

The paramedic team works closely with HPPH to provide COVID testing to isolated individuals, as well as the Huron Perth Palliative Care Outreach Team Physicians, and Local Complex Care Physicians to improve the patient experience and prevent unnecessary visits to ER or lengthy hospital readmission.
