Not every health concern requires a trip to emergency. 🏥 Exploring your health care options can ensure you receive the right care when you need it most. Here’s where to start:
1️⃣Primary Care Provider: Your family doctor or other primary care provider is often the best place for non-urgent concerns and ongoing and preventative care.
2️⃣Health Link (811): Available 24/7 and will connect you with registered nurses who can provide health advice, answer your questions, and guide you to the appropriate care. The nurses may book you an appointment with a PCN semi-urgent Access clinic.
3️⃣Urgent Care and Emergency: If you are seriously ill or injured, or have potentially life-threatening conditions, you should immediately phone 911 or go to urgent care or emergency.
