Youth Clinic – St. Francis My name is Stephanie Coombes, and I am a registered nurse with the Yukon Government. I am looking forward to supporting the health and well-being of students at St. Francis by providing monthly health clinics. I provide a variety of services including guidance on mental health, nutrition, physical activity, non-urgent care and health promotion. I work closely with the incredible teams of pediatricians at Lynx Health to provide low barrier primary care to youth who do not have a family doctor (but youth who do have a family doctor are welcome too!). If your child has needle phobias for blood work or vaccines, I can work them with to do the bloodwork at school to reduce wait times in the hospital setting. Parents are welcome to call 867-335-1728 and speak to me if they have specific requests for health services or appointments for their children. Warm Regards, Stephanie Coombes Advent candles and wreaths for sale! Advent is less than a month away! We are selling 4-piece candle sets and metal wreaths!
Please do not hesitate to call the school at 667-5901 if you have any questions or concerns. Join us on Instagram @stfrancisyukon. Blessings, The St. Francis of Assisi Admin Team, Alethea Wallace, Principal; Mia Ouellette, Vice-Principal; Tanner Cassidy, Vice Principal Comments are closed.
