Erie St. Clair Regional Cancer Program

04/30/2026

A $2.8 million provincial investment is helping connect over 5,600 people in the Sarnia-Lambton region to a primary care provider, improving access to care close to home.

This funding will support:
- Rapids Family Health Team , alongside Central Lambton Family Health Team, North Lambton Community Health Centre, and Twin Bridges Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinic, connecting over 4,900 patients
- E-nangaabe-jig Health Services, supporting access for over 760 Indigenous community members, in partnership with Aamjiwnaang First Nation Administration and Council, Chippewas of Kettle & Stony Point, and Walpole Island First Nation

Together, we’re continuing to build a more connected and inclusive system, ensuring people can access the care they need, when and where they need it.

Thank you to all partners, leaders, community members and MPP Bob Bailey whose collaboration continues to move this work forward.

✨Regional Cancer Program Highlights: Your Symptoms Matter✨

The Your Symptoms Matter (YSM) program gives patients a simple way to let their Care Team know how they’re feeling—both physically and emotionally—so they can better support symptom management and overall well-being.

For prostate cancer patients, the newly implemented EPIC (Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite) survey is now part of this process. This important questionnaire focuses on treatment-related urinary, bowel, s*xual, and hormonal symptoms—helping your care team improve your quality of life with care that’s tailored to you.

After completing YSM, you may also be invited to complete Your Voice Matters—a short patient experience survey that takes just a few minutes and helps improve the care experience for all patients.

🕒 Complete your survey up to 24 hours before your appointment
📱 Use your phone, tablet, or computer

April 19-25th is National Volunteer Week, a time to celebrate and thank Canada’s 12.7 million incredible volunteers who give so generously of their time and hearts to support their communities. Volunteering is often seen as a selfless act — individuals share their time, skills, experience, and compassion to help others, without expecting anything in return.

In our Cancer Clinics across the region, our volunteers play a vital role in the patient and family experience. From offering a warm welcome at the front desk, to providing guidance, comfort, and a friendly face during what can be an overwhelming time, their presence makes a meaningful difference every day. Their kindness, dedication, and willingness to support others help create a more welcoming and supportive environment for patients, families, and care teams alike.

This National Volunteer Week, we extend our heartfelt appreciation to all of the volunteers for the impact they make and the care they provide. Please take a moment to thank a volunteer this week!
