Community Care Access

Telephone access only
780.496.1300

Community Care Access is an integrated system of health and personal support services that are arranged for clients based on assessed need. It provides telephone screening and needs assessment 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Assessment and admission for all Facility Living options, including continuing care, is arranged through Community Care Access at 496-1300.

Community Care Access coordinates all continuing care placements for the cities of Edmonton, Fort Saskatchewan, Leduc, Spruce Grove and St. Albert, and the counties of Leduc, Parkland, Strathcona and Sturgeon (and communities within their geographical areas), as well as the Town of Devon and communities in the eastern part of Yellowhead County.

Community Care Access also arranges to provide ongoing support and assistance to individuals who may not be suitable for referral to a specific program but who do require some case management until their needs are resolved.

Community Care Access is operated by Capital Health, one of nine regional health authorities in Alberta, that serves a population of one million residents in the region. Capital Health was formed in June 1994 during the process of health reform and regionalization initiated by the Alberta Government. Capital Health coordinates continuing care services with public, voluntary and private partners. It is the largest employer in the region, including contract and funded affiliates such as CapitalCare.

Please visit the Capital Health website for more information about Community Care Access and other health care services and facilities in the Capital Health region.
