 Did You Know?

The Bow Valley Primary Care Network (PCN) was launched in May, 2009. Together with your family doctor, our inter-professional team helps you receive the right care at the right time. This includes chronic disease prevention and management, mother and baby health, advice on medications, back pain rehabilitation, exercise and weight loss programs and many more services aimed at improving your health.

Primary care is the healthcare you receive through your family doctor’s clinic or the centralized Primary Care Network office. Ask at your family doctor’s clinic or click on the links above for more information.

Volunteer Lifestyle Ambassadors keep motivation levels high

Volunteer Lifestyle Ambassadors have played an important part in Bow Valley PCN’s self-directed wellness program, Spring into Health, by engaging people from  communities all along the Bow Valley - from Lake Louise to Kananaskis. The Ambassadors have displayed energy and enthusiasm, recruiting participants from workplaces, clubs, and among groups of friends and neighbours. They have continued to give support, promoting health choices, physical activity and well-being, distributing resource materials and keeping motivation levels high.

Bow Valley PCN would like to thank all Lifestyle Volunteers for their commitment and generosity in helping promote this initiative.  Click on the Spring into Health link for an interview with Paula Remple, a volunteer Lifestyle Ambassador. 

Lifestyle Ambassador Paula Remple says, “Spring into Health seemed to be a no-nonsense approach that brought people together towards a common goal.”
