Fairview Health Complex to close several times

The Fairview Health Complex Emergency Department will be temporarily without an on-site doctor several times between October 21st and 26th.

According to AHS, due to the inability to secure coverage, the ED will be closed from 7:00 a.m. October 21st to 7:00 a.m. October 23rd and again from 7:00 a.m. October 25th to 7:00 a.m. October 26th.

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.
