A numbers of health services in Queens County have been temporarily moved as part of the large hospital project. Support services offered in the former nurses residence will be shifted to Milton School. Programs include Addiction and Mental Health, Palliative Care, Public Health, Seniors Community Health Team and Hearing and Speech Services. Those programs will return to Queens General Hospital when construction of the new medical unit and primary care centre are complete. The health authority says clients will be notified of the change in location when they schedule an appointment.
