An expansion is in the plans for the Woodstock Community Health Centre. Health Minister Deb Matthews came to Woodstock today to announce plans for capital funding that will allow for more space and more services at the Woodstock CHC. However, there was no dollar figure attached to today's announcement. What Matthews says will be provided, is greater access to health care. "We want everybody to get the care they need, as close to home as possible, in the most appropriate setting. So because community health centres offer care from a number of different providers, you can provide that care that keeps people healthy, that keeps people at home, that keeps people out of hospitals." The CHC provides a number of services under one roof from primary health care to mental health, addictions services and dietary programs. The announcement will also pave the way for more youth and wellness programs. And from the perspective of Dr. Joel Hamilton, who is Physician at the Woodstock CHC, it will allow them to serve more patients. "With the capital announcement today, we'll be able to further expand our space, up to 12 exam rooms, which will mean a lot more access to primary care for patients."
