No docs at Fairview Health Complex ED for first half of October: AHS

The Fairview Health Complex will be closed for most of the first part of October due to the inability to secure physician coverage.

From 7:00 a.m. September 30th to 7:00 a.m. October 1st, 7:00 a.m. October 2nd to 7:00 a.m. October 3rd, 7:00 a.m. October 4th to 7:00 a.m. October 5th, 7:00 a.m. October 7th to 7:00 a.m. October 9th, and again from 7:00 a.m. October 10th to 7:00 a.m. October 12th, the ED will be without an onsite physician.

AHS says nursing staff will remain on-site to provide triage, assessments, and referrals for patients to alternate emergency departments in surrounding communities.

Residents are asked to call 9-1-1 in case of emergency and EMS will remain available to the community with re-routing to surrounding healthcare centers. For non-emergencies residents are asked to call Health Link at 8-1-1, for 24/7 inquiries.
