About this location/unit:
Ashcroft and Cache Creek are small communities with one of the best climates in BC, having mild winters, and warm summers, with little precipitation.
The mountains are only a few miles away. Skiing, hiking, fishing, swimming, and biking opportunities are within easy drives.While the health site is located in and named after the Ashcroft community (population 1,800), the Village of Cache Creek (population 1,200) is 10 km away.
The site provides service to both communities and the surrounding area, a total population of approximately 7,000.There are 25 residential beds, x-ray and lab services, home care nursing, home support, mental health and public health at the site.
Patients needing higher levels of care are transferred to Kamloops. The city of Kamloops (about an hour's drive) and Vancouver (three and a half hours away) provides urban opportunities. Close enough to enjoy far enough away not to impact our life style. Without a single traffic light both communities offer have a relaxed living experience.Come live, work and play where others only vacation. Make a difference. Love your work.
