Your guide to the Northern Interior Health Unit relocation

The Northern Interior Health Unit (NIHU) will relocate in late summer 2026 to support construction of the new acute care tower at the University Hospital of Northern BC (UHNBC).

We will update this page as new information becomes available.

Where services are going

All relocated services will be located at Parkwood Mall under one site name: Prince George Community Health Centre

Services currently offered at the NIHU and the John G. McKenzie Family Practice Centre will be combined under one roof. Bringing teams together in one location will support stronger team-based care, improve coordination, and make it easier for everyone to access services.

The Prince George Community Health Centre will have two public entrances (upper and lower). You can access the upper entrance through the former Hudson's Bay entrance near the Staples parking lot and the lower entrance through the former China Cup entrance. Exterior signage identifying the Prince George Community Health Centre will be installed at both entrances.

Before the move, we will share additional wayfinding and access information to help you find your way to services at the new location.
