Flu Shot Clinic
Due to a delay in the receipt of more flu vaccines, the previously scheduled Flu Shot Clinics are canceled for the month of October. We hope to receive more flu vaccines in the coming weeks and will notify our patients when the next series of Flu Shot Clinics are scheduled.
Please note, flu shots are available at local pharmacies. If you do get your flu shot at the pharmacy please advise the office of the date you received your flu shot.
Thank you for your patience
Ugent Care Clinic Update
In
2015, the North Renfrew Family Health Team implemented a temporary Urgent Care
Clinic to help rostered patients access care in a timely manner. The clinic,
which was created when wait-times for appointments were considered long,
avoided patients having to wait for a regular appointment when they wanted to
be seen urgently.
Since
that time, the Family Health Team has suspended the clinic while making vast
improvements to appointment availability. According to a recent patient experience
survey, 80% of patients now feel that they have been able to get an appointment
on the day that they wanted.
The
Family Health Team has determined that patients now have access to care when
they need it, whether they see a nurse practitioner or a physician. As such, the
temporary Urgent Care Clinic has now been formally discontinued.
If
you are a patient of the Family Health Team and would like to book an
appointment, please call the office at 613-584-1037 or click here to book an online
appointment using the HealthMyself patient portal. If you have not yet registered
for the patient portal, feel free to ask any of the reception staff for
assistance.
