Kamloops

Set amid sandstone canyons, rolling grasslands, and magnificent evergreen woods, Kamloops is a flourishing city of 100,000 with an energetic character set against a stunning natural setting.

Known for our welcoming spirit, our city has earned its moniker as the Tournament Capital of Canada, offering big city amenities including excellent eateries, unique shops and exceptional recreation facilities. We take immense pride in our dynamic arts community, and annual events including the Kamloops Film Festival, Wildlights at the BC Wildlife Park, and Music in the Park.

With eight beautiful provincial parks and over 100 lakes nearby, our city offers fantastic opportunities for outdoor activities like fishing, kayaking, hiking, biking and camping. With mountain, parkland and desert fairways dotting the landscape here, we’re fast becoming Canada’s premier golf destination. Come winter, Sun Peaks Resort transforms into a mecca for skiers and snowboarders, just a quick 45-minute drive out of the city.

With 300 sun-filled days and the warmest people you’ll ever meet, Kamloops is the perfect spot to set down roots and live life with passion.

Kamloops North Shore Urgent and Primary Care Centre:

Our new UPCC located in the Northills Mall on the North Shore of Kamloops features a large purpose-built design with many exam rooms and an abundance of free parking.

The new North Shore UPCC sees patients who might normally go to a family doctor or nurse practitioner for their ailment, if an appointment had been available. Patients will typically be seen by a physician, but they may also be seen by a physiotherapist, a nurse, a social worker or other clinician, depending on the nature of their injury or illness.

There is an increased number of team-based care available by referral at the Urgent Primary Care Centre for non-life threatening illnesses or injuries that need same-day care. With a hybrid walk-in and phone-in access model, patients will have choices and low-barrier access to care.

The team provides care for:
• Less serious injuries
• Lacerations/wounds/skin conditions
• Infections
• Minor pediatric illness/injury
• Women’s health
• Culturally safe care
