Expo Centre – COVID-19 Isolation Shelter
BMHC is leading the primary healthcare response for vulnerable populations affected by COVID-19 along with our partners from Alberta Health Services, the City of Edmonton, Homeward Trust, Boyle Street Community Services, the Bissell Centre and others.
We are operating at the Edmonton Expo Centre which has been set up as a temporary, 24/7 medical isolation facility for vulnerable community members who have been exposed to COVID-19, or have symptoms, to allow them to recover and protect others by self isolating. BMHC physicians, nurses, social workers and other healthcare team members are on site providing care for individuals experiencing homelessness.
BMHC was asked by Alberta Health Services to lead operations at the Expo Centre because of our experience in caring for vulnerable populations and clinical excellence in the treatment of addictions, mental health and complex primary healthcare.
Our mobile health clinic has also been redeployed to the Expo Centre and is BMHC’s nursing team is providing front-line leadership through the mobile clinic.

Donate
BMHC is at the forefront of the COVID-19 response for Edmonton’s inner-city population, and our resources are being stretched both at our main clinic and at the Edmonton Expo Isolation Centre. We realize the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in tremendous financial strain for many individuals, families and businesses. If you or your organization are able to make a financial donation to support BMHC, your generosity will directly benefit Edmontonians most affected during this unprecedented time.
