May 2008 - Humble Beginnings – 1/2 day per week clinic

A ½ day a week clinic is established to screen and provide short term health care at Reception House Clinic- co-located with Sophia House- temporary housing for GARs.

Some of the individuals who are still with us have been involved in these early days: Paula Day (Nurse Practitioner) and former clinic coordinator Omar Ezzat were responsible in presenting to the SWCHC board about the Reception House Clinic and for supporting with drafting the first proposal that was put to the Champlain LHIN. Hoa Duong also provided nursing support at the clinic.
