Pertussis test

Specimens for the pertussis test are collected at the CLSC’s Nursing Care Clinic (NCC) with a referral.

As part of the follow-up after your baby’s birth, one of our nurses will provide you with breastfeeding support starting at the first home visit and for as long as you need it.

Services are also available at the CLSC’s breastfeeding clinic or newborn clinic. In addition, community-based breastfeeding support services are provided by La Lèche.

• Newborn clinic: Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

A nurse or a psychosocial team is available to help you, guide you, support you and answer your questions. At any stage of your disease, they will be able to:

• give you information about the disease, and its treatment and consequences;
• refer you to other healthcare professionals or community resources that could better meet your needs;
• help you organize the care and services offered to you;
• support you in coping with the disease.

Consultation, support and follow-up

From the time you’re diagnosed with cancer or told that your cancer is back, the pivot nurse at your treatment centre will be there to guide you through your treatments and give you the services you need. After that, you will be transferred to our care teams for follow-up.

Consult the Community organizations page.
