What is ConnectMyHealth?

It's a digital health solution that provides you with an online, single access channel to review your health records from participating hospitals in Ontario Health West Region (Southwestern Ontario). ConnectMyHealth can be used on desktop and mobile devices from within Canada, and there's no cost to use it. ConnectMyHealth is a web-based tool, so there is no app to download to access your account on an ongoing basis. For added security, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is required at each login to ConnectMyHealth, which is available via SMS text or by using an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator or Twilio Authy. Instructions to set-up MFA are available that describe how to complete this part of your account activation.

New exterior entrance banners are being installed at the Centre this week. The new banners are the initiative of the Centre's Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Committee (JEDI) and align with our strategic direction "Reimagine" notably advancing social justice. There is a bit of work left to do on the entrance way banners, but they are up, so please have a look the next time you visit the Centre. We sincerely thank the JEDI Committee for their hard work.

~Small positive acts are the foundation of continuous growth~

Dr. Welch is currently on an approved much needed leave of absence. Currently, we do not have a confirmed date for her return.

The West Elgin Community Health Centre fully supports Dr. Welch's absence and we wish her well. During her absence, our remaining Providers are working hard to ensure continuity of care. However, as they are carrying an increased workload, please be aware that it may take longer than usual to receive care. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate this period together. 

Please be assured that we remain committed to providing you with the highest quality of care. Our dedicated team continues to work diligently to support your health and well-being. Thank you for your continued trust in our services.

Warm regards, Rick van der Heide, Primary Health Services Director
