Community Services

For Three Links Care Centre residents without a family doctor, there are physicians who regularly visit the Centre and are willing to accept new patients. Residents wishing to continue with the services of their personal doctor are encouraged to do so.

Prior to admission, the resident and his or her doctor should discuss the kinds of medical care the resident is comfortable with. Residents’ wishes will be noted on their medical records. When residents are admitted, we request they appoint a close friend or family member to be their health advocate. In the event that a resident is unable to discuss treatment decisions with their physician, the health advocate will be able to speak for the resident.

Additional health care services provided through Vancouver Coastal Health at their Evergreen Health Unit include: Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy and Speech Language Pathology
