    Devastating Fire significantly affects the Environmental Health Division

    Our hearts go out to all those impacted from the tragic fire which occurred last night at the Computer World Building in Bois D’Orange, especially the staff of the Environmental Health Division within the Ministry of Health, Wellness and Nutrition. The blaze has significantly affected the 2nd and 3rd Floor of the building which housed the ministry’s Environmental Health Division. We are also grateful that are no reports of injuries or loss of lives. We are completely heartbroken by this unfortunate event and share in the pain and devastation felt by everyone affected by this incident. The Ministry of Health remains committed to supporting the staff members affected by this incident during this period of recovery. We also express deepest gratitude to the Saint Lucia Fire Service and all emergency personnel who worked tirelessly and bravely to manage the fire. The Environmental Health Division provides critical public health services including food safety monitoring, environmental inspections, sanitation oversight and public health surveillance. As a result of the incident, normal operations at this location have been temporarily disrupted. The Ministry of Health is currently conducting an assessment of the damage and working to activate a plan to ensure continuity of services. The Ministry of Health assures the public that public health protection remains a top priority and measures are being implemented to maintain continuity of services. We ask for your patience and understanding during this time and we will provide further updates early next week.
