Chatham-Kent and Sarnia-Lambton health-care agencies receive $537k for First Five program connecting under-5 children to primary care.

Chatham-Kent and Sarnia-Lambton health-care agencies receive $537k in provincial funding to support a new program, First Five, connecting children under five to primary care, particularly those without OHIP cards or a family doctor. This initiative aligns with the Ontario Health West Provincial Pediatric Strategy, which aims to invest in pediatric care in regions outside major urban centres.
