BROOKS, AB – A temporary collections site will open in Brooks next month as part of lab services expansion in southeast Alberta, according to Alberta Health Services.

The cite will open on April 3 in the former long-term care wing of the Brooks Health Centre. In a press release, AHS said it planned to open the new community lab collections site by the end of March, but construction delays have pushed the opening of the building at 500 Cassils Road back to June.

The Newell Clinic will remain open for lab collections until the end of the day on March 31. Patients will be asked to use to the new clinic on April 3. The site is open Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
