Health and Support Services

Ottawa Public Health (OPH) encourages residents to actively participate in decisions that affect their health. Health and support services allow all residents to increase their knowledge about how to access health and social services in our community.

The more you know about where to find help, the more informed decisions you can make to get and to stay healthy. OPH is your link to Ottawa’s health and support services.
