Neighbourhood Health and Wellness Hubs

Immunization services provided:

• All immunization services are provided on a drop-in basis to residents who face barriers to access.
• PLEASE NOTE: Our clinics do experience times of the year where we may reach capacity early in the scheduled clinic day due to increase demand for immunization services. These times of year include the fall respiratory vaccine season, before the start of a new school year and in winter/ early spring during our school immunization record surveillance process. 
  • We try our best to see all clients, however if the hub location you are visiting is very busy and reaches maximum capacity for the day, you may be offered to visit another clinic or asked to return on the next available date. During busy clinic times we provide a clinic sign-up sheet at the start of the clinic day to determine clinic capacity and to help client's plan their day to avoid long wait times at our clinic, similar to other drop-in health care services in the community.
• Virtual support is also available by calling 613-580-6744 and speaking to a public health nurse if you have questions about your child’s vaccination needs or vaccination record. Calls will be answered Monday to Friday from 9:00 am to noon and 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm.

COVID-19 and Flu

Starting October 14, 2025, Ottawa Public Health will offer COVID-19 and Flu vaccines to eligible high-risk clients facing significant barriers to accessing the vaccine in the community. This includes children aged 6 months to under 5 years of age (and their immediate family and household members), and newcomers without OHIP.

Please visit COVID-19 Vaccination or Flu vaccination for more details on timing and eligibility. 

• All of our hubs offer routine vaccines that are required for attending schools and daycares, including all school-based vaccines.
• Vaccines are available to children and youth aged two months to 17 years of age who do not have a primary care provider (such as a family doctor or nurse practitioner). This includes children and youth without an Ontario Health Card (OHIP). For the list of publicly funded vaccines visit our Parenting in Ottawa website. 
• Please bring all vaccination records and a piece of identification for the child/youth receiving the vaccine(s) or their Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) card if available. An OHIP card is not required if you do not have one.

Champlain Screening Outreach Program

The Champlain Screening Outreach Program helps people get access to cancer screening services. This program is for individuals in Eastern Ontario without a family doctor or nurse practitioner. Individuals can access screening for breast, cervical, colorectal, and lung cancer based on provincial eligibility criteria.

Find out more about who can get cancer screening, and how to make an appointment.

Neighbourhood Health and Wellness Hubs can help check eligibility and book an appointment.

Please note: To be eligible for screening services, you must have Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) or Interim Federal Health Program coverage (IFHP). The Champlain Screening Outreach does not offer primary care services or diagnostic services. If you have a current medical complaint, please access care through available walk-in clinics.
