Grande Prairie Cancer Centre

About Grande Prairie Cancer Centre

The Grande Prairie Cancer Centre is an Alberta Health Services outpatient oncology facility located within the Grande Prairie Regional Hospital at 11205 110 Street, Grande Prairie, AB. It serves a vast catchment area spanning from High Level and the Northwest Territories in the north to Grande Cache in the south and Peace River to the east, seeing approximately 4,000 patients per year. The centre provides cancer treatment as close to home as possible — including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, hormonal therapy, patient navigation, and psychosocial support — while emergency care for cancer patients is available at the adjacent Grande Prairie Regional Hospital emergency department.

Best Times to Visit

Tips Before You Go

• Verify the current address before visiting — the Cancer Centre is located at the Grande Prairie Regional Hospital (11205 110 Street), not the former QEII Hospital campus on 98 Street.
• Use the heated pedway from the five-storey parkade to reach the Cancer Centre without going outside — especially helpful during Alberta winters.
• Pay for parking at the pay station inside the cancer clinic itself, saving you a trip to the main hospital entrance.
• If you need cancer advice outside of your appointment, call the cancer triage telephone information line at 825-412-4200 before coming in.
• If you require pediatric oncology or brachytherapy, ask your care team about referral pathways to Edmonton or Calgary, as these specialized services are not available at this site.
• Request interpreter or translation services when booking your appointment if English is not your first language — the centre provides this support at no extra cost.

What to Bring

• Valid Alberta Health Care (AHCIP) card or provincial health insurance card
• Government-issued photo ID
• List of all current medications, including dosages and supplements
• Any referral letters or diagnostic reports from your referring physician
• Your personal care network contact information (family member or support person)
• Snacks and water, especially if attending a long chemotherapy session
• Comfortable, warm clothing or a blanket — treatment areas can be cool
• A book, tablet, or headphones to pass time during infusion appointments

About ER Wait Times

Emergency departments use triage — patients with more serious conditions are seen first, regardless of arrival time.

Wait times are estimates based on Alberta health data using historical volumes, current patient counts, and staffing. Actual wait times may vary.

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 immediately.
