As we welcome sunshine and summer in Anacortes, it is exciting to see the progress and upcoming completion of the Island Health Emergency Services Project. Over the last few months, we have been working hard to renovate the Main 24^th Street Entrance, Central Waiting area, and Emergency Department while constructing a new helicopter pad on the hospital's roof. The project's final phase involves removing the old helicopter pad from the parking lot, and repaving and restriping the 24^th Street parking lot, creating an additional 25 spaces for patients.

Please read the parking information as we plan for the repaving project.

June is National Men's Health Month, a time to remind men of the health issues they face and what they can do to take charge of their health. Aquablation® therapy is a new type of treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). At Island Urology, we are proud to be among the first in the region to offer this advanced, minimally invasive treatment.

Aquablation® therapy uses imaging, robotics and a heat-free water jet to provide long-lasting relief with low rates of complications.

With over 60,000 procedures performed worldwide and over six years of data collected, Aquablation® is safe for any size or shape prostate.

Island Health is expanding our Youth Volunteer Program to offer experience and opportunities for students and young adults. If you're at least 16 years old and interested in healthcare, we're introducing a fantastic volunteer opportunity in our clinics aimed at making a difference in our patients' lives. Join us in assisting individuals with limited mobility, extending a warm welcome to all patients in our waiting areas, and offering refreshments and a friendly smile. It's a beautiful way to contribute to our community while gaining valuable experience and making meaningful connections.
