A primary health care clinic adjacent to Roseway Hospital in Shelburne has received a boost from the province. The Shelburne Medical Clinic will receive $236,000 in provincial funding for upgrades. Environment minister Sterling Belliveau, in making the announcement this morning in Shelburne on behalf of the health minister, says a key part of the area's health care system will now be modernized. The upgraded clinic will have improved space for health care teams to work together to provide care to patients and will help recruit and keep doctors. Community partners such as the Municipality of Shelburne and the Roseway Hospital Foundation are providing just over half of the project's total cost. The project will be getting underway in a few weeks.
