We value your input and feedback!

Social Prescribing Program

Social Prescribing is a structured way of bridging between health and social services by supporting adults aged 55+ in Renfrew-Collingwood to local, non-clinical services to address their needs in a holistic way. Clients work closely with CNH staff to develop and implement a wellness plan, based on their needs and goals, by connecting to local supports.
