Child Health
Information Service

To ensure families begin their search with reliable information, Child and Health Information Services offers health related information so families can make informed decisions and advocate regarding their child's care. 

Information Prescriptions (Info Rx's) provide professionally recommended information on a variety of child health topics such as: Asthma, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Autism, Coping with Teasing and bullying, Managing Challenging Behaviors. Hard Copies of all Info Rx’s are available in the Family Library.  They can also be downloaded from our website.

Child Health Information Service along with Community Education Service hosts "Parent Power Hour" where parents get together free of charge to learn about a variety of topics through videos, handouts, and discussions. Upcoming sessions are available on the Community Education Calendar.

For help finding information, a Child Health Information Specialist is available in the Family & Community Resource Centre from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm Monday - Friday with the exception of statutory holidays.
