A new urgent and primary care centre (UPCC) is planned to open by early 2025 in Williams Lake, according to an announcement today from B.C.'s Ministry of Health.
The healthcare centre will be located at 280 North Mackenzie (also known as 47 Cameron St.), and would be open seven days a week, 9:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m., including statutory holidays, once fully staffed.
A UPCC is a primary health care centre staffed by physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physiotherapists, social workers and other administrative staff, providing a team-based approach for people needing care within 12-24 hours.
