Invermere
Perched on the edge of Lake Windermere, in the valley between the Rocky and Purcell Mountain ranges, Invermere is the economic hub of the Columbia Valley. Offering spectacular mountain scenery, abundant outdoor activity and nearby Fairmont and Radium hot springs, Invermere benefits from a healthy tourism industry. Recreation and culture unite with year-round recreational opportunities including heli-skiing, snowmobiling, white-water rafting, and golf. Local and international artists’ work can be found at galleries throughout the city and relaxed downtown district. Also birdwatcher’s paradise, Invermere celebrates the return of over 250 species of birds with its annual Wings over the Rockies Festival each May.

Invermere & District Hospital:
The Invermere Hospital is a unique facility in that all healthcare services across the continuum of care are under one roof, providing for a very cohesive approach to patient care. The hospital is a level 1 community hospital with a very busy state of the art, well functioning 12 bed Emergency Department. Invermere and District Hospital was built in 1991 and the Columbia House Residential Care was added in 1994 and then later expanded to 35 beds in 2005. A new public/private share residential care, Ivy House, has recently been built in the next block.
