Sanguen Health Centre is committed to a collaborative, evidence based response to the COVID-19 pandemic, while prioritizing the well-being of our staff, volunteers, and those who use our services.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>COVID-19 (COronaVIrus Disease – 2019) is an infection new to humans, first emerging in the latter part of 2019. Fortunately, it appears that most people who are in contact with someone with COVID-19 will not become infected themselves, and the large majority that do become ill will experience only a mild respiratory illness from which they will quickly and fully recover. However, the elderly and those with certain medical issues or compromised immune systems can become severely ill, require hospitalization, and are at risk of dying from this novel viral infection. There is a very real risk that our health care system will be overrun by the number of people requiring care, as has been seen in other parts of the world.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>As a result, we are all now in the middle of an unprecedented response to a new pandemic infection, with the goal of slowing its spread so we can maintain our ability to care for those will need our already-strained hospital resources. Fortunately, we appear to be in a position in our community to be successful with this response, and to achieve this goal, if we all participate and do our part to help ourselves and those around us.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>There are some simple measures to help limit the transmission of this virus, to protect ourselves, those close to us, and those who we serve:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Wash your hands, properly and effectively. Don’t assume you know how, check this out and be sure you do [external Youtube link: <a href=\"https://youtu.be/o9hjmqes72I\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https://youtu.be/o9hjmqes72I</a> ]. </li>\r\n<li>Be aware of what you touch, and when you need to clean your hands.</li>\r\n<li>If you can’t wash your hands, use hand sanitizer.</li>\r\n<li>Avoid touching your face.</li>\r\n<li>If you have symptoms, stay home and away from other people. Know who to call to get advice as to whether you should seek medical attention for your symptoms – most people with COVID-19 won’t need to see a doctor.</li>\r\n<li>Cough into a tissue or your elbow.</li>\r\n<li>Limit your forays out into the community, and of course avoid large gatherings. The concept of “social distancing” is now well established, and is an important principle. Try to maintain some distance between yourself and others at all times.</li>\r\n<li>Avoid unnecessary travel.</li>\r\n<li>Seek out and follow the advice of experts – our local, provincial and national Public Health authorities will have to most up to date information and guidance. Find and share reliable information.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\n<p>As we move forward, we will strive to continue to provide services as comprehensively as we can. We recognize that those we serve are among the most at risk for exposure to and severe effect from COVID-19.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>At this time, we will continue to maintain the following services:</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Clinics (Hep C, Hep B, HIV, HIV PrEP, etc.)<br>\r\nCommunity Health Vans<br>\r\nCommunity Primary Care Bus<br>\r\nConsumption and Treatment Services<br>\r\nWINS Program<br>\r\nother outreach and support services as available</strong></p>\r\n\r\n<p>In order to do so, we will continually re-evaluate our ability to provide services safely and effectively, in accordance with advice and guidance from Infection Control experts, Region of Waterloo and Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Public Health Departments, MOHLTC, Public Health Ontario, and Public Health Agency of Canada. A number of measures will be taken to help ensure safe service delivery:</p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>use of phone calls and telehealth in lieu of in-person visits except when unavoidable</li>\r\n<li>screening of each patient by phone prior to appointments</li>\r\n<li>advising patients to stay home if symptomatic, or giving direction to specific COVID-19 clinical services as appropriate</li>\r\n<li>screening patients and other visitors on-site, including having visible signage reminding people of appropriate preventative measures</li>\r\n<li>frequent and enhanced cleaning and disinfection of high traffic area and frequently touched surfaces</li>\r\n<li>appropriate disposition of anyone utilizing services who may have symptoms of COVID-19</li>\r\n<li>working with our community partners in a collaborative effort to maintain service delivery</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\n<p>We will have links on our website of useful resources, and information about COVID-19 that we will use to guide our evolving response, and we will be continually updating our plans for service delivery.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>This is a time of much uncertainty and concern, and we recognize now more than ever the importance of coming together with a common goal of continuing to serve those in our community that are now left potentially even more at risk and disconnected.

This is an opportunity to look beyond ourselves, and to tying to stay connected to those who need our help the most.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>We would like to thank everyone for their continued support as we work through this – together.<br>\r\n</p>\r\n[/av_textblock]\r\n\r\n[av_hr class=\'invisible\' height=\'50\' shadow=\'no-shadow\' position=\'center\' custom_border=\'av-border-thin\' custom_width=\'50px\' custom_border_color=\'\' custom_margin_top=\'30px\' custom_margin_bottom=\'30px\' icon_select=\'yes\' custom_icon_color=\'\' icon=\'ue808\' font=\'entypo-fontello\' av_uid=\'av-k7wd510b\' admin_preview_bg=\'\']\r\n\r\n[av_textblock size=\'\' font_color=\'\' color=\'\' av-medium-font-size=\'\' av-small-font-size=\'\' av-mini-font-size=\'\' av_uid=\'av-jqzievic\' admin_preview_bg=\'\']\r\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Resources</h2>\r\n<div  style=\"text-align: center;\">\r\n<p><a href=\"https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">World Health Organization</a> </p>\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/diseases/coronavirus-disease-covid-19.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Public Health Agency of Canada</a> </p>\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https://www.publichealthontario.ca/en/diseases-and-conditions/infectious-diseases/respiratory-diseases/novel-coronavirus\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Public Health Ontario</a> </p>\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https://www.ontario.ca/page/2019-novel-coronavirus?_ga=2.45637924.1089141585.1584298406-1778266439.1359393283\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ministry of Health and Long term Care</a> </p>\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"https://www.regionofwaterloo.ca/en/health-and-wellness/2019-novel-coronavirus.aspx\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Region of Waterloo Public Health</a> <br>\r\n</p>\r\n</div>\r\n[/av_textblock]\r\n\r\n[av_hr class=\'invisible\' height=\'50\' shadow=\'no-shadow\' position=\'center\' custom_border=\'av-border-thin\' custom_width=\'50px\' custom_border_color=\'\' custom_margin_top=\'30px\' custom_margin_bottom=\'30px\' icon_select=\'yes\' custom_icon_color=\'\' icon=\'ue808\' font=\'entypo-fontello\' av_uid=\'av-k7wd510b\' admin_preview_bg=\'\']\r\n\r\n[av_textblock size=\'\' font_color=\'\' color=\'\' av-medium-font-size=\'\' av-small-font-size=\'\' av-mini-font-size=\'\' av_uid=\'av-jqzievic\' admin_preview_bg=\'\']\r\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">How Can I Access HIV PrEP?</h2>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\r\nYou can access HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) in Waterloo at the Sanguen PrEP Clinic.\r\n\r\nIf you are interested in HIV PrEP, you can book an appointment by calling: 519-603-0223.\r\n\r\nTo learn more about PrEP, visit: \r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://thesexyouwant.ca/prep/reasons-to-get-on-prep/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">http://thesexyouwant.ca/prep/reasons-to-get-on-prep/</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.catie.ca/en/fact-sheets/prevention/pre-exposure-prophylaxis-prep\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.catie.ca/en/fact-sheets/prevention/pre-exposure-prophylaxis-prep</a>\r\n</div>\r\n[/av_textblock]\r\n\r\n','HIV PrEP','','inherit','closed','closed','','673-revision-v1','','','2022-02-15 22:25:52','2022-02-16 03:25:52','',673,'https://sanguen.com/?p=1625',0,'revision','',0),

In partnership with the Inner City Health Alliance, The Working Centre and Sanguen Health Centre received funding from Health Canada to address the devastating impacts of the opioid crisis in the Region of Waterloo.</p>\r\n\r\nThrough this program, physicians and Nurse Practitioners prescribe legal, pharmaceutical opioids to participants to replace the toxic street supply. The Safer Supply program focuses on a team-based, person-centered approach within a community-based model of care. Our program offers stability for clients by providing support around a participant\'s substance use and other social determinants of health.</p>\r\n\r\n<h4>Who can participate in the program? </h4>\r\n\r\n<p>This program is offered to high-risk individuals who use unregulated, street-level opioids and are at high risk of overdose and overdose related death. Criteria is determined once the referral form is processed. In order to be eligible for this program, you must reside in Kitchener-Waterloo.  </p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4>What is expected of the program participants? </h4>\r\n\r\n<p>Each participant is required to adhere to a set of guidelines in order to participate in the program. The guidelines are reviewed during the initial intake and in the Program Agreement and include but are not limited to: </p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Participants will be expected to attend weekly appointments with their doctor/Nurse Practitioner, submit weekly urine samples, and pick up their medication as directed at their specified pharmacy.</li>\r\n<li>Participants will be honest with their doctor/Nurse Practitioner regarding drug use outside of their Safer Supply prescription.</li>\r\n<li>Participants will be expected to engage with Community Navigators, Care Facilitators, and Nurses on social and health related goals. </li>\r\n<li>Participants will not sell or otherwise divert their Safer Supply medication. Diversion represents a reason for removal from the Safer Supply program.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\n<h4>How can I submit a referral to this program for myself or another person? </h4>\r\n\r\n<p>Referrals can be submitted independently or by a service provider on behalf of somebody interested in the program.

As an organization we were aware that community health outreach is one of the most effective strategies to engage with people who live ‘outside’ of the system, who are marginalized, chronically poor, homeless or at risk of homelessness and who use substances.  Creating the ability to go out and meet people where they are at really decreases barriers faced in accessing services, and builds relationship of trust and respect that translates immediately into better whole health outcomes. The model of a mobile community health van just made sense for Sanguen and the work we wanted to accomplish, and so the long road to acquire community partners and funding began.  </p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Waterloo Region Community Health Van was launched in 2015, and services have grown through partnerships with the Region of Waterloo and the TELUS HEALTH FOR GOOD Program. The ‘Van’ services Kitchener and Cambridge and makes different stops throughout these cities.  Our interdisciplinary team staffs the Van, and connects community members with harm reduction supplies, such as new drug gear, needle exchange, condoms, etc; naloxone training and distribution; food, clothing, hygiene items, nursing, peer and social supports. </p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Community Health Van works in close collaboration and partnership with so many other excellent services, strengthening the services offered to our community members.  </p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p> </p>\r\n[/av_textblock]\r\n\r\n[av_hr class=\'short\' height=\'50\' shadow=\'no-shadow\' position=\'center\'

As an organization we were aware that community health outreach is one of the most effective strategies to engage with people who live ‘outside’ of the system, who are marginalized, chronically poor, homeless or at risk of homelessness and who use substances.  Creating the ability to go out and meet people where they are at really decreases barriers faced in accessing services, and builds relationship of trust and respect that translates immediately into better whole health outcomes. The model of a mobile community health van just made sense for Sanguen and the work we wanted to accomplish, and so the long road to acquire community partners and funding began.  </p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Waterloo Region Community Health Van was launched in 2015, and services have grown through partnerships with the Region of Waterloo and the TELUS HEALTH FOR GOOD Program. The ‘Van’ services Kitchener and Cambridge and makes different stops throughout these cities.  Our interdisciplinary team staffs the Van, and connects community members with harm reduction supplies, such as new drug gear, needle exchange, condoms, etc; naloxone training and distribution; food, clothing, hygiene items, nursing, peer and social supports. </p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Community Health Van works in close collaboration and partnership with so many other excellent services, strengthening the services offered to our community members.  </p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p> </p>\r\n[/av_textblock]\r\n\r\n[av_hr class=\'short\' height=\'50\' shadow=\'no-shadow\' position=\'center\'

The Mobile Health Clinic is an extension of the excellent harm reduction, outreach and health work Sanguen has been offering the region for years. The Telus Health Mobile Health Clinic brings to life that phrase “Meeting people where they are at” by offering low-barrier primary care health services to the community’s most marginalized - individuals experiencing chronic poverty, homelessness, substance use and mental health challenges in Kitchener and Cambridge.  \r\n\r\n In mid-March 2020, Ontario experienced the first province wide lockdown due to COVID-19.  Sanguen’s Mobile Health Clinic responded to the community needs created by this pandemic and quickly adapted its services to offer COVID-19 testing for people experiencing homelessness or who are precariously housed.  \r\n\r\nSanguen is so very excited and grateful to be able to offer this kind of low-barrier medical and mental health care to the community. An undertaking of this magnitude can only be achieved by the work of many hands, and Sanguen would like to warmly thank community partners for their on-going support.  Alongside Telus Health as a Community Partner, Sanguen would like to thank the Kitchener Downtown Community Health Centre (KDCHC), Lang’s Farm, the Working Centre, the Inner City Health Alliance and the Waterloo Wellington LHIN.\r\n[/av_textblock]\r\n[/av_one_full]\r\n\r\n[av_one_third first min_height=\'\' vertical_alignment=\'\' space=\'\' custom_margin=\'\' margin=\'0px\' row_boxshadow=\'\' row_boxshadow_color=\'\' row_boxshadow_width=\'10\' link=\'\' linktarget=\'\' link_hover=\'\' padding=\'0px\' highlight=\'\' highlight_size=\'\' border=\'\' border_color=\'\' radius=\'0px\' column_boxshadow=\'\' column_boxshadow_color=\'\' column_boxshadow_width=\'10\' background=\'bg_color\' background_color=\'\' background_gradient_color1=\'\' background_gradient_color2=\'\' background_gradient_direction=\'vertical\' src=\'\' background_position=\'top left\' background_repeat=\'no-repeat\' animation=\'\' mobile_breaking=\'\' mobile_display=\'\' av_uid=\'av-6ilghb\']\r\n[av_video src=\'https://youtu.be/Awr4WiZY6Po\' mobile_image=\'\' attachment=\'\' attachment_size=\'\' format=\'16-9\' width=\'16\' height=\'9\' conditional_play=\'\' av_uid=\'av-kkzxsxpl\']\r\n[/av_one_third]\r\n\r\n[av_two_third min_height=\'\' vertical_alignment=\'\' space=\'\' custom_margin=\'\' margin=\'0px\' row_boxshadow=\'\' row_boxshadow_color=\'\' row_boxshadow_width=\'10\' link=\'\' linktarget=\'\' link_hover=\'\' padding=\'0px\' highlight=\'\' highlight_size=\'\' border=\'\' border_color=\'\' radius=\'0px\' column_boxshadow=\'\' column_boxshadow_color=\'\' column_boxshadow_width=\'10\' background=\'bg_color\' background_color=\'\' background_gradient_color1=\'\' background_gradient_color2=\'\' background_gradient_direction=\'vertical\' src=\'\' background_position=\'top left\' background_repeat=\'no-repeat\' animation=\'\' mobile_breaking=\'\' mobile_display=\'\' av_uid=\'av-42kaz3\']\r\n[av_gallery ids=\'1285,1284,1283\' style=\'thumbnails\' preview_size=\'portfolio\' crop_big_preview_thumbnail=\'avia-gallery-big-crop-thumb\' thumb_size=\'portfolio\' columns=\'3\' imagelink=\'lightbox\' lazyload=\'avia_lazyload\' av_uid=\'av-kkzxabmt\' admin_preview_bg=\'\']\r\n[/av_two_third]\r\n\r\n[av_one_full first min_height=\'\' vertical_alignment=\'\' space=\'\' custom_margin=\'\' margin=\'0px\' row_boxshadow=\'\' row_boxshadow_color=\'\' row_boxshadow_width=\'10\' link=\'\' linktarget=\'\' link_hover=\'\' padding=\'0px\' highlight=\'\' highlight_size=\'\' border=\'\' border_color=\'\' radius=\'0px\' column_boxshadow=\'\' column_boxshadow_color=\'\' column_boxshadow_width=\'10\' background=\'bg_color\' background_color=\'\' background_gradient_color1=\'\' background_gradient_color2=\'\' background_gradient_direction=\'vertical\' src=\'\' background_position=\'top left\' background_repeat=\'no-repeat\' animation=\'\' mobile_breaking=\'\' mobile_display=\'\' av_uid=\'av-npg9in\']\r\n[av_textblock size=\'\' font_color=\'\' color=\'\' av-medium-font-size=\'\' av-small-font-size=\'\' av-mini-font-size=\'\' av_uid=\'av-jkztl2ku\' admin_preview_bg=\'\']\r\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">What Does the Telus Mobile Health Bus Offer?</h2>\r\n\r\nThe Mobile Clinic offers essential primary medical and mental health services, and works closely with outreach and other organizations to strengthen networks of care and support.

The Mobile Health Clinic is an extension of the excellent harm reduction, outreach and health work Sanguen has been offering the region for years. The Telus Health Mobile Health Clinic brings to life that phrase “Meeting people where they are at” by offering low-barrier primary care health services to the community’s most marginalized - individuals experiencing chronic poverty, homelessness, substance use and mental health challenges in Kitchener and Cambridge.  \r\n\r\n In mid-March 2020, Ontario experienced the first province wide lockdown due to COVID-19.  Sanguen’s Mobile Health Clinic responded to the community needs created by this pandemic and quickly adapted its services to offer COVID-19 testing for people experiencing homelessness or who are precariously housed.  \r\n\r\nSanguen is so very excited and grateful to be able to offer this kind of low-barrier medical and mental health care to the community. An undertaking of this magnitude can only be achieved by the work of many hands, and Sanguen would like to warmly thank community partners for their on-going support.  Alongside Telus Health as a Community Partner, Sanguen would like to thank the Kitchener Downtown Community Health Centre (KDCHC), Lang’s Farm, the Working Centre, the Inner City Health Alliance and the Waterloo Wellington LHIN.\r\n[/av_textblock]\r\n[/av_one_full]\r\n\r\n[av_one_third first min_height=\'\' vertical_alignment=\'\' space=\'\' custom_margin=\'\' margin=\'0px\' row_boxshadow=\'\' row_boxshadow_color=\'\' row_boxshadow_width=\'10\' link=\'\' linktarget=\'\' link_hover=\'\' padding=\'0px\' highlight=\'\' highlight_size=\'\' border=\'\' border_color=\'\' radius=\'0px\' column_boxshadow=\'\' column_boxshadow_color=\'\' column_boxshadow_width=\'10\' background=\'bg_color\' background_color=\'\' background_gradient_color1=\'\' background_gradient_color2=\'\' background_gradient_direction=\'vertical\' src=\'\' background_position=\'top left\' background_repeat=\'no-repeat\' animation=\'\' mobile_breaking=\'\' mobile_display=\'\' av_uid=\'av-6ilghb\']\r\n[av_video src=\'https://youtu.be/Awr4WiZY6Po\' mobile_image=\'\' attachment=\'\' attachment_size=\'\' format=\'16-9\' width=\'16\' height=\'9\' conditional_play=\'\' av_uid=\'av-kkzxsxpl\']\r\n[/av_one_third]\r\n\r\n[av_two_third min_height=\'\' vertical_alignment=\'\' space=\'\' custom_margin=\'\' margin=\'0px\' row_boxshadow=\'\' row_boxshadow_color=\'\' row_boxshadow_width=\'10\' link=\'\' linktarget=\'\' link_hover=\'\' padding=\'0px\' highlight=\'\' highlight_size=\'\' border=\'\' border_color=\'\' radius=\'0px\' column_boxshadow=\'\' column_boxshadow_color=\'\' column_boxshadow_width=\'10\' background=\'bg_color\' background_color=\'\' background_gradient_color1=\'\' background_gradient_color2=\'\' background_gradient_direction=\'vertical\' src=\'\' background_position=\'top left\' background_repeat=\'no-repeat\' animation=\'\' mobile_breaking=\'\' mobile_display=\'\' av_uid=\'av-42kaz3\']\r\n[av_gallery ids=\'1285,1284,1283\' style=\'thumbnails\' preview_size=\'portfolio\' crop_big_preview_thumbnail=\'avia-gallery-big-crop-thumb\' thumb_size=\'portfolio\' columns=\'3\' imagelink=\'lightbox\' lazyload=\'avia_lazyload\' av_uid=\'av-kkzxabmt\' admin_preview_bg=\'\']\r\n[/av_two_third]\r\n\r\n[av_one_full first min_height=\'\' vertical_alignment=\'\' space=\'\' custom_margin=\'\' margin=\'0px\' row_boxshadow=\'\' row_boxshadow_color=\'\' row_boxshadow_width=\'10\' link=\'\' linktarget=\'\' link_hover=\'\' padding=\'0px\' highlight=\'\' highlight_size=\'\' border=\'\' border_color=\'\' radius=\'0px\' column_boxshadow=\'\' column_boxshadow_color=\'\' column_boxshadow_width=\'10\' background=\'bg_color\' background_color=\'\' background_gradient_color1=\'\' background_gradient_color2=\'\' background_gradient_direction=\'vertical\' src=\'\' background_position=\'top left\' background_repeat=\'no-repeat\' animation=\'\' mobile_breaking=\'\' mobile_display=\'\' av_uid=\'av-npg9in\']\r\n\r\n[av_textblock size=\'\' font_color=\'\' color=\'\' av-medium-font-size=\'\' av-small-font-size=\'\' av-mini-font-size=\'\' av_uid=\'av-jkztl2ku\' admin_preview_bg=\'\']\r\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">What Does the Telus Mobile Health Bus Offer?</h2>\r\n\r\nThe Mobile Clinic offers essential primary medical and mental health services, and works closely with outreach and other organizations to strengthen networks of care and support.  The Bus is staffed with a nurse practitioner, a nurse and a social support coordinator to offer interdisciplinary care and support. A special focus is placed on offering services with dignity and respect and building relationship. \r\n\r\nThe Bus is equipped with TELUS Health’s electronic medical record (EMR) and wifi network.
