Following months of extensive refurbishment, the Vieux Fort Wellness Centre has reopened, offering residents of Vieux Fort and surrounding communities access to upgraded healthcare services in a safer and improved facility.
The Centre resumed operations on January 20, 2025, after its closure in October 2024 due to air quality concerns caused by mold infestation and underlying maintenance issues. Jenny Daniel, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Health, Wellness, and Elderly Affairs, highlighted the necessity of these interventions.
The Men’s Health Clinic focuses on preventive care and chronic disease management, particularly prostate health and overall wellness. Meanwhile, the Colposcopy Clinic provides specialized evaluation and management of cervical health concerns for women. Residents are encouraged to utilize the expanded services available at the Vieux Fort Wellness Centre. Operating hours are Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, and Saturdays, 8:00 AM to 12:30PM.
