New urgent primary care centre on the way for Duncan

A new urgent primary care centre is set to open its doors in Duncan at 940 Government Street next year.  The province says the new centre will provide urgent and primary care with extended hours for people who need their health concerns addressed within 24 hours but do not require an emergency department visit.   They add sprains, cuts, high fevers and minor infections are all appropriate injuries for the UPCC.  The centre will be staffed with around 30 full-time employees consisting of family physicians, nurse practitioners, registered nurses and social workers.  “This is a facility designed to align with existing services and help to meet the growing need for primary care. Collaboration will continue to be critical as we move forward,” said Dr. Carole Williams, co-chair of the Cowichan Division of Family Practice.  Currently, there are seven of these centres on Vancouver Island and this one comes with a 7-million-dollar price tag.  The post New urgent primary care centre on the way for Duncan appeared first on My Cowichan Valley Now.
