Community Paramedic Clinics - Community Paramedics hold health assessment clinics in designated Grey County public housing buildings as part of an ongoing study with McMaster University * blood pressure monitoring, health education and diabetes risk assessments are focused on in an attempt to reduce at-risk patients' dependence on the '9-1-1' system and local emergency departments
