Regina, Saskatchewan Finally Opens an Urgent Care Centre: It’s About Time! Shaina Tranquilino July 2, 2024

In a significant step towards enhancing healthcare access in Regina, Saskatchewan, the city has finally opened its very own Urgent Care Centre (UCC). This development marks a pivotal moment for the community, promising to alleviate pressure on emergency rooms and provide timely medical care for non-life-threatening conditions. The arrival of an Urgent Care Centre is not just a milestone but a necessity for a growing city like Regina.

What is an Urgent Care Centre?

An Urgent Care Centre is a medical facility designed to provide immediate care for illnesses and injuries that require prompt attention but are not severe enough to warrant a trip to the emergency room. UCCs are equipped to handle a wide range of medical issues, including but not limited to:

Minor fractures and sprains

Cuts and lacerations

Infections and fevers

Mild asthma attacks

Minor burns

Allergic reactions

Dehydration requiring intravenous fluids

These centres are typically staffed by physicians, nurse practitioners, and other healthcare professionals who are trained to deliver quick and efficient care. They often operate during extended hours, including evenings and weekends, making them a convenient option for those who need immediate medical attention outside of regular clinic hours.

Why is an Urgent Care Centre Important for Regina?

1. Alleviating Emergency Room Overcrowding

Emergency rooms are designed to handle life-threatening conditions and severe medical emergencies. However, they often become congested with patients experiencing non-emergency issues due to a lack of alternative care options. The new Urgent Care Centre in Regina will help divert these non-critical cases away from the ER, ensuring that emergency resources are reserved for those who need them the most.

2. Providing Timely Medical Care

In many cases, the conditions treated at UCCs require prompt attention but not the extensive resources of an emergency department. By offering a dedicated space for such care, the UCC ensures that patients receive timely and appropriate treatment, reducing wait times and improving overall patient satisfaction.

3. Enhancing Community Health

Access to an Urgent Care Centre can lead to better health outcomes for the community. When minor injuries and illnesses are treated promptly, they are less likely to develop into more serious conditions. This proactive approach helps maintain a healthier population and reduces the long-term burden on the healthcare system.

4. Increasing Accessibility

For many people, especially those without a primary care physician, finding immediate medical care can be challenging. UCCs provide an accessible option for individuals who might otherwise struggle to get the care they need in a timely manner. The presence of a UCC in Regina ensures that more residents have access to quality healthcare when they need it.

5. Economic Benefits

Healthcare access is a crucial factor in the overall well-being and productivity of a community. By reducing the strain on emergency rooms and providing more efficient care, UCCs contribute to lower healthcare costs. This economic benefit extends to both the healthcare system and the patients, who may face fewer lost workdays due to untreated illnesses.

The opening of the Urgent Care Centre in Regina, Saskatchewan is a momentous development that promises to enhance the city’s healthcare landscape significantly. By providing an alternative to emergency room visits for non-life-threatening conditions, the UCC will improve the efficiency of medical care, ensure timely treatment, and contribute to the overall health and well-being of the community. It is a long-awaited and much-needed addition to Regina’s healthcare infrastructure, reflecting a commitment to better serving the needs of its residents. Indeed, it’s about time!

Played a new song about my Metis great grandmother Eliza Jane today on the Global Morning show. Will find the video once they post it to share with yall. Singing at 8am after an hour and a half of sleep, but it's worth it to sing this song here on Regina when the song is also about this dang snowed in town and this dang colonial history we have here. P.s. it also makes it easier when the morning news guy is a total catch. I need to get up early and watch this broadcast more haha 💕!!! 😄 👌 😍😘🤩 #metis #metishistory #saskatchewan #reginasaskatchewan #globalmorningshow #globalregina #elizajane #prairiehistory #governmenttown #redriver #globalnews #morningshow #songwriter #prairiesongs (at Global Regina) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtLqbq6Arw1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cm5lfx4xzvx0

Continuing My New Year’s Resolution: Donating to Help The Cathedral Community Fridge for October 2024 Shaina Tranquilino October 1, 2024

As the year goes on, I’ve been grateful to stay true to my New Year’s resolution of donating to a different cause each month. This October, I’m excited to support an initiative that deeply resonates with me: Help The Cathedral Community Fridge in Regina, Saskatchewan. This organization is tackling food insecurity in a unique and powerful way—entirely community-funded, run by volunteers, and driven by the spirit of mutual aid.

Why I Chose Help The Cathedral Community Fridge

Food insecurity is a growing issue across Canada, and Regina is no exception. The Cathedral Community Fridge provides an immediate and essential solution—food, directly to those in need, every day. What makes this organization even more special is its pure reliance on community support. They don’t receive any government or charity funding. There’s no large-scale nonprofit organization backing them. Instead, they thrive solely on the contributions of neighbors, friends, and generous strangers who understand that community support is the backbone of food security.

This resonated with me because it’s a reminder that we don’t always need massive institutions or bureaucracies to create change. Sometimes, it’s the collective effort of individuals working together that makes the biggest difference. Knowing my donation will help them continue their mission made this month’s choice easy.

What the Donations Support

Help The Cathedral Community Fridge goes beyond just providing food. They’re offering an entire support system for the vulnerable and marginalized in Regina. Here’s a glimpse into the incredible impact they’re making with the funds they receive:

Feeding 100s of people daily: The Fridge ensures that people who might not have regular access to meals can grab something fresh and nutritious, no questions asked.

Delivering 700 food hampers annually: They’re not just relying on people to come to them—volunteers actively deliver food hampers to those most in need, especially the elderly, people who have disabilities, or those without transportation.

Driving 5,000 kilometers a year: Gas funding allows volunteers to cover a vast area, making sure food reaches remote or overlooked individuals who are often left out of food security networks.

Delivering 200,000 lbs of food annually: It’s hard to comprehend just how much food passes through the hands of these volunteers. Every pound represents a crucial meal for someone who might otherwise go hungry.

Providing shelter and resources: Beyond food, The Cathedral Community Fridge supports the houseless population by purchasing supplies such as sleeping bags, tents, and water, while offering basic essentials like medical supplies and gloves.

Funding Crisis Team supplies: Regina’s harsh winters mean that immediate crisis response can sometimes be the difference between life and death. Donations go toward bus passes, emergency supplies, and other resources to help people get out of dangerous situations.

Supporting other Mutual Aid Networks: It’s beautiful to see that they don’t just stop at helping their own community. They share resources with other mutual aid networks, creating a ripple effect that amplifies the power of every donation.

Why This Work Matters

Food insecurity isn’t just about lack of access to meals. It’s connected to housing instability, mental health, and a cycle of poverty that can feel impossible to break. What Help The Cathedral Community Fridge is doing matters because they’re not just providing food—they’re giving people the means to survive and, in many cases, thrive.

The fact that this initiative is entirely volunteer-driven is incredibly inspiring. No one is getting paid, but everyone’s work is deeply valued. It feels great to support a cause where every dollar donated goes straight to helping the community, rather than administrative costs or overhead.

How You Can Get Involved

If this cause resonates with you as much as it did with me, I encourage you to support Help The Cathedral Community Fridge. Whether it’s a financial donation, volunteering your time, or simply spreading the word, every little bit helps.

You can follow them on social media, share their posts, and, if you're in Regina, consider dropping off food or supplies at the fridge. The more we spread awareness, the more we can help strengthen the sense of community that is already thriving there.

As I continue this journey of giving each month, I’ve realized just how much of a difference small, consistent acts of kindness can make. Help The Cathedral Community Fridge is just one example of a local initiative making a huge impact, and I’m grateful to play even a small role in supporting their work this October.

If you're inspired, I hope you’ll consider joining me in supporting causes that speak to your heart and uplift your community. Together, we can create real, lasting change—one month, one donation, one act of kindness at a time.

Let’s keep the giving spirit alive this fall, and remember that community is the foundation of progress! https://gofund.me/439bf431

Fun Fact Friday Did you know that that Regina is the only city/town that I kept the real name of in my novel series? The rest of the names of towns and cities are in places of real towns on the map but with a fictional name. Regina became a city on June 19, 1903 and is 132 miles from Abbington Pickets, my fictional village. Do you know how long that would take to drive a team of horses with a wagon back in 1906? It would most likely take approximately three days to travel, not to mention stopping to feed the horses and rest then spending the night at stop overs. Most folks would travel to Pickets (an hour and a half horse team drive) and then take the train to Regina. Here are some photos of Regina from 1909-1919 #regina #reginasaskatchewan #vintageregina #saskatchewan #abbingtonpicketsseries #jacobofabbingtonpickets #jacobsplace #lettersfromjacob #hchewittauthor #novelseries https://www.instagram.com/p/CB603PngJob/?igshid=1ub53o1bg6uzd
