PICTURE BUTTE – Picture Butte and area residents are invited to an in-person community engagement session to learn more about primary healthcare services in Picture Butte, as well as the upcoming closure of the ambulatory care clinic (ACC) at the Piyami Health Centre.
The session will provide residents with an opportunity to speak with Alberta Health Services (AHS) representatives and learn more about the healthcare services that will continue at Piyami Health Centre.
As the ACC is only a portion of the overall facility, this session will provide clarity around the healthcare services that will remain and the recruitment efforts that will support primary care in the area.
AHS is working hard to ensure local residents continue to have access to the primary care they need in the community and looks forward to sharing our plans to support residents now and in the future.
Alberta Health Services is the provincial health authority responsible for planning and delivering health supports and services for more than four million adults and children living in Alberta. Our mission is to provide a patient-focused, quality health system that is accessible and sustainable for all Albertans. Our current focus is on reducing emergency department wait-times, improving EMS response times, increasing access to surgeries, and improving patient flow.
