For almost a decade, this absence reinforced inequalities in access to healthcare, particularly affecting the vulnerable and elderly.

Today’s reopening marks a new era. Modernized and better equipped, La Ressource Wellness Center now offers an expanded range of services from general medical care and chronic disease management to specialties such as dental dental health, mental health, podiatry and men’s health.
