Health Links - Info Sante has added some extra services in response to the current wildfire situation in the province.

Bruce Krentz, Health Promotion Co-ordinator with the Northern Health Region talks about one here.

“If some of your friends have been evacuated and they are somewhere else in Manitoba and you are having trouble finding right where they are, the number is actually the Health Links number and so it’s 1-888-315-9257 and that’s toll free.”

It’s called the Wildfire Health Information and Patients Relocation number.

Besides helping you find family and friends, Health Links - Info Sante also provides wildfire support information regarding any health issues you may have.

Krentz added there are a wide range of supports available and contact information can be found on the Northern Health Region facebook page.
