The emergency department at the Central Peace Health Complex in Spirit River will be closed until 10 a.m. Friday, September 1st, due to an unexpected nursing shortage and an inability to secure temporary coverage.
Alberta Health Services says the space may reopen earlier if coverage can be found. Nurses will remain on-site in Acute Care.
Anyone in need of medical attention are asked to call 9-1-1, and Alberta Health Services says it will work hard to ensure anyone needing care will receive it.
