As of Monday (Aug. 12), the Monchy Wellness Centre will be closed for retrofitting under the SMART Health Facilities project.

The scope of works includes: repairs and retrofitting; making the facility more energy efficient; and adapting the facility to the effects of climate change. Retrofitting work is expected to last approximately three months.

As a result, health services will be redirected to the Gros Islet Polyclinic and the Grande Riviere Wellness Centre. Outreach clinics and home visiting will continue in the community. Clients are also free to access services at any of the other Wellness Centers during this time.

The Ministry of Health and Wellness therefore seeks the understanding of the general public—especially those from the affected communities.

For more information, feel free to contact the Ministry of Health and Wellness at 758.468-5321.
