Nanaimo Health Centre Wound Care Clinic
Opening in 2026, the Nanaimo Health Centre Wound Care Clinic will improve how our community receives care, by expanding and updating outpatient wound care and infusion services, and enabling an additional 16,000 patients a year to access care. Located at the Grant Avenue Clinic on the NRGH campus, the new Wound Care Clinic will provide patients the specialized support they need outside of the hospital through 7-day a week service.
