It provides a mix of outpatient primary health care, public health services, urgent care outside normal hours, diagnostics, immunization, family care and child health clinics. The centre aims to deliver many health services locally so residents need less travel to major acute hospitals.

EEHC offers a wide range of services including General Radiography (X-ray), Urgent Care Services for non life-threatening but urgent health issues (sprains, infections, minor injuries), Laboratory services, Child Health Clinics, Community Perinatal & Postpartum programs (Healthy Beginnings), Immunization across ages (infant & preschool, school, adult), Respiratory Therapy in the community, Pediatric Community Rehabilitation, Prenatal/post-natal support, Women’s Health and Family Care Clinic including support for vulnerable populations.

Patient & Community Support Features

The centre emphasizes accessibility: public transit and parking are available; there is a client parking lot on 79 St and 113 Ave; facilities are designed to serve community health needs. Visiting / clinic hours for many outpatient services are regular, but urgent care has extended hours including evenings and weekends. Translation / interpreter services are offered. The centre also provides school health services, preschool oral health, tuberculosis testing, and programs for new mothers. Community health nurses deliver public health education, screening, and support.

Strengths & Challenges

Strengths include the breadth of services under one roof, which helps reduce patient travel; availability of after-hours urgent care that eases pressure on hospital EDs; strong public health / immunization programs and maternal/child health services; and being embedded in community so more responsive to local needs. Challenges are that urgent care may have high volumes and sometimes close early if volume is too great (clinic capacity limits); some diagnostic or specialist services may not be available on site; waiting times for non-urgent care can vary; navigating which clinic/service to access can be confusing for newcomers; parking or commuting during peak hours might pose inconvenience.

Practical Information & Tips

Phone: 780-342-4700. Address: 7910 112 Avenue NW, Edmonton, AB, T5B 0C2. For urgent care, check hours especially evenings/weekends. For outpatient or specialist clinic visits, check if appointment or referral is needed. Bring health card / ID and any relevant medical history or documents. Use public transit if possible, or plan for parking on site. If not fluent in English, interpreter services are available. For immunizations or maternal/child care, verify what services are offered at EEHC rather than elsewhere. For after‐hours urgent care, best to call ahead if possible.
