Cranbrook Urgent and Primary Care Centre (UPCC)

The Cranbrook Urgent and Primary Care Centre (UPCC) provides team-based care for non-emergency health concerns to individuals in Cranbrook that require same day attention. Care is available for concerns such as minor injuries, sprains and strains, infections, less serious child illness and injury, high fever, and cuts, wounds or skin conditions.

If you do not have a family doctor/nurse practitioner, or you are unable to get an appointment with your care provider that day, you can visit the UPCC. A health care team is available to provide care for your health issues. You may see one or more of the following health professionals depending on your care needs:

• Family physician
• Nurse practitioner
• Registered nurse
• Social worker
• Physiotherapist
• Mental health and substance use clinicians
• Aboriginal Patient Navigator
• Aboriginal Care Navigator

UPCC patients are seen based on urgency, not on a first come first serve. Appointments will not be made to see a medical provider. For assistance, please call 250-420-2323.

If you have a health emergency that requires immediate care, call 911 or present at the nearest emergency department.
