Primary Care Alberta Indigenous Support Line is available

Primary Care Alberta is reminding everyone that its Indigenous Support Line, which offers culturally-grounded care, is available.

The line is open Monday to Friday, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., at 1-844-944-4744 or through 811.

PCA says that this is for anyone who needs help navigating the healthcare system, or wants to connect with culturally grounded care. Indigenous Listeners are available to provide confidential, culturally informed support and guidance.

This includes help with addictions, mental health, accessing services, and talking about concerns.

“The Indigenous Support Line connects callers with Indigenous Listeners who provide confidential, culturally informed support and guidance. Whether callers need help accessing services, addressing concerns, connecting with Indigenous cultural supports, or finding assistance for mental health and addiction challenges, Indigenous Listeners are here to help. Indigenous Listeners can also connect callers with translation services in 23 Indigenous languages, helping reduce barriers to care and ensuring more Albertans can access the support they need.”

The service also offers translation in 23 Indigenous languages, aimed at reducing barriers so more Albertans can access the care they need.
