To the Sandy Hill Community:

We regret to advise you that due to a recent health and safety issue that has occurred at our CTS, we must unfortunately suspend supervised injection services for the foreseeable future while we investigate next steps.

The health and safety of our clients, staff members and neighbours has always been and will always be our top priority.

This was not an easy decision. We are doing our best to minimize disruption. The following Oasis / Consumption and Treatment Site services remain open:

· The drop-in

· The medical clinic

· Outreach

· Distribution of harm reduction equipment

· Drug checking

All other Centre programs and services remain open and are not impacted.

We are acutely aware of the impact this situation will have on clients and our community, and are exploring options to redeploy staff to do outreach and engagement in the neighbourhood and overdose response outside.

We will provide updates on next steps as quickly as they become available. Please direct any inquiries to info@sandyhillchc.on.ca

Thank you for your understanding,

Your team at the Sandy Hill Community Health Centre
