Look for us in our new location soon! - Townsite of Redwood Meadows

After two and half years of planning, negotiating and
holding our vision of a local primary care option for
our community, your Mountain Woods Health Services
Board is delighted to announce to the greater
Bragg Creek and area residents that we have an opening
date for our new ‘family care centre’ – the new
Premier’s moniker for local primary care clinics!
The newly built-out clinic at 20 White Avenue
(occupying ½ the space of the current pharmacy in
the Village Market Mall) will be handed over to our
physicians on July 1 st, 2012. During the month of July,
clinic staff will be busy setting up equipment,
training on procedures and EMR’s (electronic medical
records) and taking initial appointments for patient
visits.
Patient visits are slated to begin August 6 th. The new
telephone number that prospective patients can call
to schedule appointments for August and beyond
will be announced when it is available.
Our new facility will be called “Care in the Creek’
Family Care Centre. The name was selected by the
MWHS board from the entrants to a contest extended
to local schoolchildren. Kieran Brown of Redwood
Meadows was the author of the winning name.
Sharon thanked all entry participants, especially runners
up Michela & Elle Rae of Springbank, and
‘Docs in the Creek” is a reality!

to see our young community members take
the initiative to become involved in the naming of
their family care centre. A grand opening ceremony
is being planned for early Fall…..watch for announcements
relative to this event in the press and on our
website.

in need of renovation. The Bragg Creek Community Association has set up a Physical Site Development

for this site. Physical Site Development Plan Committee members- Robert Sadee, Mike Wattam, Stella
George, Sandra Pelkey, Mike Medwid, Candace Perko, Michelle Shewchuk, Jason Curtis- will be available

as the BCCA moves forward in developing a vision for our Centre’s future.
