The Madeira Park ambulance station will be relocating within that community, but the move is about a year away. That's according to a B.C. Emergency Health Services' (BCEHS) media department Feb. 25 email to Coast Reporter.
"We are pleased to confirm that the BCEHS ambulaance station in Madeira Park will be moving from the building it currently shares with the Fire Department to a new location nearby in a building previously occupied by Fisheries and Oceans Canada.
"This new station will be purpose built for the needs of the ambulance service and will give our crews more space to work and rest during their shifts. We are currently in the early stages of extensive renovations to the new space. We anticipate it will be at least a year before these are completed. In the meantime, our crews will continue to work out of the existing station," the email read.
