Your mental health is important and Primary Care Networks are here to help!

Your doctor can use this information to select evidence-based mental health screenings and resources tailored to your needs. You can also call Health Link (811) or the Addiction and Mental Health Helpline (1-866-332-2322) for mental health support.
