This interview is pulled from the Consider This Northumberland archive of more than 100 interviews done in 2024.
One major change to the local healthcare system in the past year was the reopening of the Port Hope walk-in clinic. After a year of hard work and countless challenges, access began in August.
The hours continue to be irregular, and people still need to check the county’s website or call to find the days and times it is open. But it was a big change in the face of a huge demand.
You will hear an interview done in August with Port Hope Mayor Olena Hankivsky and Northumberland County Health and Human Services Director Glenn Dees as they talk about what it took to get the job done.
