Follow-Up: Healthcare in Frontenac – Community Working Group - November 6, 2025

Good morning,

Thank you very much for your interest in healthcare in Frontenac and for taking the time to attend the Local Community Working Group ideas session in support of recruitment and retention efforts for the clinics in Frontenac County.

We greatly appreciate the thoughtful input shared during the two sessions, follow-up survey, emails, and conversations. Your contributions are invaluable to this process.

As mentioned at the end of each session, our next steps were to:

• Compile all input from meetings, surveys, and additional correspondence, meet with the clinics to discuss next steps, follow up with participants, and post updates and input summaries on the Engage Frontenac Healthcare page.
• We’re pleased to share the “What We Heard” summary document is attached and available on the Engage Frontenac Healthcare page.
• We met with the clinics to discuss next steps and to identify some of the areas where we could be most supportive of their ongoing work. Recruitment and retention of health human resources for the Frontenac clinics remains the top priority.

We know there is a lot of interest in supporting many aspects of healthcare in Frontenac. Given concerns about broader healthcare beyond the scope of the recruitment and retention focus on the Terms of Reference, we have reached out to Frontenac Lennox and Addington Ontario Health Team (FLA OHT) and are currently working with them to explore opportunities to provide community input to their planning. We will continue to share updates with this group.

Thank you once again for your interest in healthcare in Frontenac.

The Clinics in Frontenac, Debbi, and Rob
