Health Bus

While no longer based out of a bus, the Health Bus staff continues to offer Niagara residents many valuable services.

Services provided by the Health Bus are now being offered inside the buildings of our community partners. These include:

  • treatment for minor medical conditions
  • mental health counselling
  • immunization
  • sexual health counselling
  • sexually transmitted disease counselling, education, testing and treatment
  • health education
  • illness prevention
  • general health assessments
  • prescriptions can be written when a nurse practitioner is present

The Health Bus is staffed by two registered nurse practitioners, public health nurses and a community support worker from our Community Mental Health Program.
