Flemingdon Park Community Health Centre has now made living with diabetes simpler with a handy kit available to those most troubled come January, including those suffering in Scarborough. The prototype kit, that comes with a booklet, DVD, measuring spoons, pedometer, measuring tape and stress ball, was displayed on Tuesday morning as part of the South Asian Diabetes Prevention Program (SADPP) to prevent or protect South Asians in the community from diabetes.

Scarborough's Centenary Hospital is back in the black six months ahead of schedule. The hospital had planned for a balanced run rate by 2009 and a surplus from 2010 onward.
