Temporary closures upcoming at Sylvan Lake Advanced Ambulatory Care
Due to gaps in physician coverage, the Sylvan Lake Advanced Ambulatory Care Service (SLAACS) will experience a series of temporary closures later this month, on the following dates and times:
- Monday, June 17, from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at which time the service will reopen until 10 p.m.
- Monday, June 24, 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at which time the service will reopen until 10 p.m.
Officials with Alberta Health Services (AHS) say appointments scheduled with other services at the Sylvan Lake Community Health Centre, including laboratory appointments, or appointments with Public Health or Addiction and Mental Health services are not impacted by temporary closures of SLAACS.
The health organization says patients arriving at the Sylvan Lake Community Health Centre to receive care from SLAACS during a temporary closure will be redirected to other available care options as appropriate to their individual needs. This may include being redirected to other facilities, being asked to return when SLAACS resumes service, or following up with a primary care provider.
