Mobile Clinics

In partnership with Vancouver Coastal Health and the ALS Centre at GF Strong Rehab Centre, the ALS Society of BC provides mobile clinics to outlying communities to offer follow-up appointments to patients who can no longer visit the ALS Centre. Past locations have included Abbotsford, Nanaimo, Victoria, Kelowna, Kamloops, West Kootenays and Prince George.  The ALS Centre team also provides in-service training about ALS to caregivers and healthcare professionals.  Note that the locations of the clinic are determined by the ALS Centre.

Thank you to the Province of British Columbia for supporting our Mobile Clinics.

Demographics

Our goal is to provide four mobile clinics across BC annually. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, there were no mobile clinics held from 2020 to 2021. Instead, virtual clinics were offered to patients by the ALS Centre. In 2023, the ALS Society of BC arranged one mobile clinic located in Kamloops.
