Residents of Prescott and Russell can now access the Virtual Triage and Assessment Centre since yesterday, a health service for non-urgent problems. It is for people without a doctor or nurse practitioner, or who are unable to get an appointment quickly. Consultations with a community paramedic or nurse practitioner will be offered Monday to Friday in Bourget, Casselman, Hawkesbury and Rockland, as well as virtually. Appointments can be made via 1-800-240-5581.
