The Nova Scotia Health Mobile Clinic will be back in Bridgewater this Wednesday offering non-urgent medical care.

It will once again be setup at the South Shore Community Health Centre, located on North Street, operating Wednesday evening from 5:30 to 8:30. Receiving will be done in Suite 102 of the building which also houses Lawtons Drugs.

The clinic can only address non-urgent, low-acuity health issues and is not an emergency service. See a list of the types of concerns below if you are not sure where to go.

Types of concerns that may be addressed at the mobile primary care clinic include:

• Prescription refills or renewals (except for controlled substances)
• Minor respiratory symptoms
• Sore throat
• Earaches
• Fever
• Headache
• Rashes
• Minor gastrointestinal concerns (vomiting and diarrhea)
• Cough, flu, or cold symptoms
• Urinary tract infections

Anyone planning to go is reminded to bring their provincial health care which is required in order to get treatment.
