If you need urgent care, your first step is to register as a patient.
1. Register as a patient
You will need your BC Services Card with your Personal Health Number. Choose one of these two ways to register:
- Call your nearest Urgent and Primary Care Centre.
or - Go to your nearest Urgent and Primary Care Centre. Please note: Going to the Centre does not mean you will get help faster. People with the most urgent medical concerns are helped first.
2. Speak to an urgent care nurse
After you register with a UPCC, the next step is to speak to an urgent care nurse. A nurse will call you on the phone within 24 hours. Most people are called within two hours. The nurse will ask you more questions about your health concern.
3. Get the care you need
The nurse may ask you to come to the Urgent and Primary Care Centre at a certain time to see a member of the care team. Or, the nurse may give you suggestions for how you can get the care you need.
Call 9-1-1 or go to the Emergency Department for serious symptoms like chest pain, head injuries or a broken bone.
Eligibility

Language (s) Offered
If you do not understand or speak English well enough to have medical conversations, we can get you a medical interpreter in your language. The medical interpreter will help you communicate with your health care team. The interpreter will join by phone or video, if video is available. Please note, this might take time. This is a free service.
For informal conversations, such as booking appointments, a family member or friend can help you explain what you need to your health care team.
