The Kings County Memorial Hospital Foundation is spearheading an initiative to establish a health clinic in Three Rivers in collaboration with Health PEI. This past summer, the Foundation established an Ad Hoc Committee with the goal of enhancing access to primary care in the area.
The committee, in collaboration with Health PEI, has acquired space in the Down East Mall in Montague with plans to offer a range of primary care services for Kings County residents without a primary care provider. These services are expected to include a Health PEI-run primary care access clinic with video conferencing with doctors and nurse practitioners, as well as a walk-in clinic run by a local pharmacy.
The Health PEI services will first launch at the Montague Health Centre before moving to the health clinic in the Down East Mall. An announcement with information about how to access the services will be made in the coming days, closer to the opening date.
