“I think our health service is just incredible,” said David Scott, 83, who got some advice on dizzy spells at the Prince George Urgent and Primary Care Centre (UPCC) on a recent Saturday afternoon. “Many of us don’t realize how fortunate we are.”
The UPCC is the place to go for after-hours non-emergency care.
Visit the PG UPCC if you or a family member are experiencing:
- Sprains caused by minor accidents and falls
- Minor bleeding/cuts requiring stitches
- Mild breathing difficulties
- Minor burns
- Respiratory infections
- Ear aches
- Eye irritation/injuries
- Severe sore throat or cough
- Headache
- Stomach pain
- Vomiting, diarrhea or dehydration
- Mild back pain
- Skin rashes and infections
- Urinary tract infections
- New or worsening pain
- Asthma
You should always try to contact your family doctor or nurse practitioner first to see if you can get an appointment.
