Sault Ste. Marie, ON  April 1st marks an exciting transition for three Group Health Centre (GHC) programs that will change locations.
The GHC Hep Care Program (formerly the Algoma Hepatitis C Program) and the HIV/AIDS Resource Program (HARP) will move from their current location inside Algoma Public Health to the main GHC building at 240 McNabb. Program staff are excited to have the opportunity to work more closely with on-site Primary Care Providers and programs – including Physiotherapy, Diagnostic Imaging, Pharmacy, Same-Day Clinic, Injection Clinic, and more.
The exercise portion of the Cardiac Rehabilitation Program will also shift locations – moving from the YMCA to the new Health and Wellness Centre at Sault College. This exciting new partnership will see patients using top-of-the-line equipment in Sault College’s beautiful new fitness facility.
