Renfrew County residents still looking to secure a family doctor will be reassured knowing they will be able to access a primary care option.
On Friday, the Ontario government announced $3.2 million to fund the Renfrew County Virtual Triage and Assessment Centre until 2024.
"As you know, we are one of many areas in the province that are challenged when it comes to the number of family physicians and the number of people who don't have access to one." "When you've called VTAC, once we now have a care record with your name on it. You call back, we pick up where you left off."
