Senior Care in Interior Health

Interior Health serves communities across BC's vast interior, from the Okanagan to the Kootenays. Kelowna and Kamloops are the major centres for senior care in the region. Many retirees are drawn to the Okanagan lifestyle, and the region offers everything from publicly funded long-term care to private retirement residences. Wait times can be longer due to limited bed capacity in some areas.
