WE DID IT! Docs in the Creek Reaches Fundraising Goal<br />
The Mountain Woods Health Services Board is delighted<br />
to announce that our Greater Bragg Creek and<br />
area Docs in the Creek fundraising campaign has<br />
reached our initial $170,000 goal and we can now proceed<br />
with the build-out and equipping or our new<br />
health center. MWHS Board members have been<br />
overwhelmed by the support this initiative has received<br />
from residents and patrons alike and we are<br />
thrilled with the speed with which the target was<br />
reached. A hearty thank-you to each one <strong>of</strong> you!<br />
Final negotiations are under way for the location for<br />
the new health center and will be announced very<br />
shortly… Andi Gabb, Vice-Chair <strong>of</strong> the MWHS<br />
Board, commented, “All I can say at the moment is<br />
that it’s in a perfect location and in our commercial<br />
core. We feel it is a ‘win-win’ for everyone concerned,<br />
not only providing a much needed service to<br />
our communities, but also bringing in additional traffic<br />
to local businesses in the hamlet.”<br />
Drawings have been submitted for approval, permits<br />
and licences have been applied for and at least two<br />
physicians have signed a letter <strong>of</strong> intent to practice in<br />
the clinic. As the patient base increases there will be<br />
an additional full time physician recruited to join the<br />
team. April is still the date targeted for the grand<br />
opening.<br />
All enquiries may be sent to mountainwoodshealth@gmail.com<br />
