COVID, Cold & Flu Care Clinic Launches at Erie Shores HealthCare

Rising numbers of respiratory illness and COVID cases are prompting Erie Shores HealthCare to launch the COVID Cold & Flu Care Clinic. The Clinic will treat individuals suffering from moderate cold, flu or COVID-like symptoms.

The Clinic, an expansion of the former COVID Clinical Assessment Centre, will allow patients who pre-book an appointment to meet with a physician or nurse practitioner and receive a health assessment and treatment plan. The Clinic can also do certain types of tests, including COVID-19 PCR testing for eligible patients.

The COVID Cold & Flu Care Clinic is part of a province-wide initiative from Ontario Health to reduce inappropriate Emergency Department visits for common respiratory ailments. Local primary care providers should continue to be the first option, where possible.
