Public Health Nurse Support for Schools
Halton Region Public Health staff have been working closely with local schools across the region for several years, through various programs, to improve the health and well-being of students and staff.
During the 2020/21 school year, the Region's public health nurses will be focused on:
- supports to school board/private schools related to school operations during the COVID-19 pandemic;
- learning supports for children, educators and their families related to preventing the spread of COVID-19 (infection prevention and control measures); and
- managing positive cases and outbreaks in school settings.
All schools continue to have access to school health information, resources and consultation. If you have any questions, please contact schoolhealth@halton.ca or call 311.
