The Fairview Health Complex Emergency Department will once again be temporarily without physician coverage numerous times between May 27th and May 30th.
Between 7:00 a.m. May 27th to 7:00 a.m. May 28th and once again on May 29th at 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. May 30th, the ED will be without an onsite doctor.
AHS says nursing staff will remain on-site to provide triage, assessments, and referrals for patients to alternative emergency departments as needed.
Patients and residents can still access 9-1-1 during a medical emergency and EMS will remain available to the community.
Residents are also reminded to call Health Link at 8-1-1 for 24/7 non-emergency health-related questions. Additionally, patients seeking care at the ED are encouraged to access services that may be available through local pharmacies.
