Public health programs relocating to Melcor Centre

March 6, 2024

LETHBRIDGE – Public health teams and programs currently operating at the Lethbridge Train Station will permanently relocate to Melcor Centre this summer.

This relocation will consolidate all public health programs in one location, providing clients with convenient access to multidisciplinary healthcare teams and resources.

In the lead up to the move, public health staff will notify affected clients individually and signage will be posted at the Train Station. Following the move, clients will be automatically booked for appointments at Melcor Centre.

The timeline is dependent on renovation work currently underway. Alberta Health Services will share more information with the public once a move date has been finalized.

Staff have been preparing for this move for several months and look forward to welcoming clients to this new space.

Public health programs include pre- and post-natal supports, immunization, population health program, preschool/school oral health services, public health nursing, sexual reproductive health, environmental public health, comprehensive school health and public health nutrition.

Melcor Centre is located at 200 4 Ave. S. Anyone with questions about access to public health services and programming is encouraged to call 403-388-6666.
