Attention Patients:

January 24th, 2022

We are now resuming Day 1 calls for IUI treatments.  Please be advised there is a weekly cap in place for safety purposes.

The Ministry-Funded IUI budget has been exhausted until April 1st, therefore all IUI cycle starts will be self-pay until that time.

We understand this is a difficult time in our community with high rates of COVID, the inability to obtain timely PCR tests and strict isolation guidelines. We are continuing to do our best to continue providing services to our patients, but here are some changes to keep you safe:

1. No partners or support persons are allowed in the centre at this time.

2. Treatments currently in progress or scheduled will continue, but patients should be aware of their increased risks of being cancelled should they end up in isolation under the guidance of Public Health or should OFC not have sufficient staff to continue cycles safely.

3. Diagnostic testing will remain scheduled, but again if insufficient staffing occurs as a result of isolation rules by public health, we will cancel testing.

OFC continues to follow Public Health guidance and we will respond to any further changes put in place by the province.
