Positive Care Clinic
The Positive Care Clinic provides HIV and hepatitis C testing and treatment (as well as pre and post-testing counselling) in Peterborough at the PARN site on Wednesdays and Thursdays. The clinic is provided through a partnership between Lakeridge Health and PARN.
The Positive Care Clinic is designed to be a “one stop shop” for our clients seeking HIV, AIDS and hepatitis C care. We work closely with people to give them the information and care they need to manage their health and live full and happy lives.
The clinic is staffed by an interdisciplinary team that includes Infectious Diseases Specialists, Registered Nurses, Social Worker, Dietitian Pharmacist and Administrative Support.
The Positive Care Clinic provides individual assessment and follow-up care, nutrition and medication counselling, onsite laboratory work (blood work), a retail pharmacy and education opportunities. Services are fully funded by the Ontario Ministry of Health (OHIP).
