Primary Care
Primary care is often the first point of contact between a person and B.C.’s healthcare system. Generally delivered by a family doctor or nurse practitioner, primary care is focused on the overall well-being of patients throughout their lifespan. Primary care providers develop strong, long-term relationships with patients and offer a range of care including educating and promoting healthy lifestyle choices, managing chronic conditions, and diagnosing and treating illness and injury.
The addition of the primary care facility aligns with Council’s strategic priorities, Healthy Livable Community – to promote and enhance a healthy lifestyle for all ages.
