Serious ambulance cases are directed to Health Sciences Centre. Other catastrophes, such as falls, broken bones and more, head to Seven Oaks Urgent Care.\n&nbsp;I was recently sent there by my doctor. He felt secure that they would solve my sudden problem. While I was awaiting the many tests they do on-site, I absorbed the rhythm of&nbsp; the place and watched the ebb and flow of nurses, aides and doctors. I sensed a close-knit family that consults with each other to discuss and make important decisions. Having&nbsp; dedicated their lives to healing, they seem happy to be fulfilling that challenge.\nHowever, as I lay in bed and listened to the group gathered around the desk area, the&nbsp; talk wasn&rsquo;t always serious.

The easy everyday camaraderie is pleasant.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":297021151,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"_classifai_error":"","_classifai_text_to_speech_error":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[18,21,14],"tags":[],"education-subject":[],"media-literacy-topic":[],"post_topic":[],"content_type":[24],"class_list":["post-575936021","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-correspondents","category-news","category-times"],"acf":{"short_title":"","seo_title":"","deck":"","story_tag":"","byline":"Freda Glow","updates":null},"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/04\/e-comm-northend-glow-dec22.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"deck":"","byline":"Freda Glow","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/575936021","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=575936021"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/575936021\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/297021151"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=575936021"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=575936021"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=575936021"},{"taxonomy":"education-subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/education-subject?post=575936021"},{"taxonomy":"media-literacy-topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media-literacy-topic?post=575936021"},{"taxonomy":"post_topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/post_topic?post=575936021"},{"taxonomy":"content_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.winnipegfreepress.com\/our-communities\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content_type?post=575936021"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
