The AFHTO board invites all members to help them select the recipient of a Board award.

The Board award recognizes an individual (or a group) who is not an AFHTO member but has significantly contributed to the development and growth of team-based primary care within their local community or at the provincial level.

Submit a nomination online for the Board Award category by August 19, 2022.

Find out more about the criteria here. You can find the nomination template here.

Radon: Is it in your patients’ homes

smokers. In persons who do smoke, the risks of developing lung
cancer when exposed to radon are further compounded.
