Are your child's prescriptions running low? Please plan ahead and get them refilled before CHEO’s clinics close for our partial slowdown.
For urgent matters, please call the main switchboard (613-737-7600) and your inquiry will be directed accordingly.

If your child or youth has a new cough, cold or runny nose and needs in-person assessment, book an appointment at:

East Ottawa Kids COVID Care Clinic in Orleans
These clinics are great alternatives to coming to CHEO’s Emergency Department when you are in need of non-urgent care.
