Some health care services are now being offered in Richer, thanks to support from the Manitoba Metis Federation who is funding a mobile clinic that is visiting a variety of smaller communities in the province.
Lynne Robson, secretary for Richer Metis Local, says the Metis Mobile Clinic has now come to their community twice and another visit is set for next month.
She reports the second visit had a lot more people accessing the supports, saying, “they were crazy busy.”
At the March 7th clinic, word had spread, and people seemed eager to learn more about this health care service offered in the small community.
“People were there from the very beginning (of the clinic) until right up until the end,” Robson says. “Older people coming in, all of the foot clinics were booked up.”
