Nova Scotia Health offers mobile primary care clinics in two communities

Nova Scotia Health is offering mobile primary care clinics at Cobequid Community Health Centre and Dartmouth South Primary Care Clinic on Aug. 31 and Sept. 1 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. These drop-in clinics are designed to provide care for people with mild or moderate health concerns when they cannot see their primary care provider. Patients will be screened for acute viral respiratory infections and given an approximate appointment time. The clinics feature a team approach with nurse practitioners and family physicians, and patients are reminded to bring their health cards and medication lists.
