The Fairview Health Complex Emergency Department will not have on-site physician coverage for one week due to the inability to secure coverage.
From 7:00 a.m. April 1st to 7:00 a.m. April 8th, the ED will not have a doctor on-site in the emergency room; however, nursing staff will remain to provide triage, assessments, and referrals for patients to alternate emergency departments as needed.
Residents are asked to call 9-1-1 in case of emergency and AHS says EMS will remain available to residents during this time.
Healthlink 8-1-1 will also be available for residents 24/7 for non-emergency health-related questions. Residents with specific needs are also reminded to search for services available through local pharmacies.
