The Blood Tribe Department of Health Long Term Care Centre is a licensed facility at the centre of our community providing comprehensive health services in a culturally sensitive environment interconnected with all agencies and Alberta Health Services.

Long term care is committed to caring for individuals with complex, unpredictable medical needs who require 24-hour onsite Registered Nurse assessment and/or treatment. We provide safe, quality care, and emphasize culturally appropriate practices to enhance the quality of life for our residents. 

We strive to maintain a home-like environment for our residents. Our team of professionals include:

  • Registered Nurses
  • Licensed Practical Nurses
  • Health Care Aides
  • Medical Doctors
  • Recreation Therapists
  • Nutrition Services
  • Dietitians
  • Physiotherapists
  • Occupational Therapists

We incorporate western and traditional practices to address the resident’s needs and to enrich the health of the residents.

For on-reserve Continuing Care Services, we recommend that Community members follow this process:

Step 1: Contact your local Home Care program in your area.

Step 2: Home Care completes assessment and is sent to the Continuing Care Access Centre which will provide assessment and refer clients to Continuing Care services and program within their community.

Step 3: Continuing Care Access Centre reviews assessment

Step 4: Resident is contacted.

  • Family Members
  • Physicians
  • Other Long Term Care Facilities
