Pertussis test

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

Since breastfeeding is encouraged, we offer two group meetings for future parents who want to learn more about its benefits. These meetings are organized by the CLSC de Salaberry-de-Valleyfield in collaboration with the Nourri-Source breastfeeding drop-in service.

The meetings are held at 71 rue Maden, in rooms 1, 2 and 3, on the 2nd floor, on the 2nd Thursday of the month, from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., and on the 4th Thursday of the month, from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

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

In addition, community-based breastfeeding support services are provided by Nourri-Source.

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.

Do you have doubts or questions about intellectual disability (ID) or autism spectrum disorder (ASD)? Do you need support?

Contact the psychosocial intake department at your local CLSC, which will analyze your needs and refer you to the relevant services.

What is an intellectual disability?

Intellectual disability is a disability characterized by significant limitations both in intellectual functioning and in adaptive behaviour, which covers a range of everyday social and practical skills. The impairments appear before age 18.

What is autism spectrum disorder?

Autism spectrum disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder that significantly affects social interaction, communication and behaviour. It also manifests in the form of atypical behaviours and the development of narrow or extreme interests in specific topics. People with ASD are a highly heterogeneous group; depending on the type of impairment, they will need different types of support.
