The Urgent and Primary Care Centre (UPCC) in downtown Victoria will be closed to in-person visits all day on Sunday, May 4, due to a planned BC Hydro power outage.
According to Island Health, BC Hydro has advised that the power is being temporarily shut off at the UPCC to allow for a system upgrade on Sunday, and clinical staff will be re-deployed to other urgent and primary care centres to continue to support patient care.
Virtual care appointments will not be affected, and the UPCC, which is located at 1107 Pandora Avenue, will resume normal operations on Monday, May 5.
Patients are asked to call 1-833-688-8722 to inquire about booking an appointment at another south Island urgent and primary care centre. The James Bay, Gorge, Esquimalt, North Quadra and West Shore sites remain open.
