It is recognized in Ontario and other Canadian provinces and most states in the United States. Applications are available from your local Ministry of Transport offices. The Easter Seal Society helps children who are physically disabled because of congenital defects, infections or accidents, and helps families in all phases of rehabilitation. Your community directories, the telephone book, the public library and the Public Health Nurse can help you find these services. The provincial government sponsors Ontario's health care system.
Eligible people get hospital medical and other health care services.
You must have a health card to prove you are eligible. New babies get this card once parents fill out the forms. Sometimes your needs cannot be met by the limitations of funding and services available from provincial government programs. Your local MPP may be able to help you.
