AHS has announced the closure of the Central Peace Health Complex Emergency Department due to an “unexpected nursing shortage.”
From 8:00 a.m. July 17th to 8:00 a.m. July 18th, no staff will be available for residents in the ED; however, nurses will remain on-site in Acute Care.
Residents are asked to call 9-1-1 in case of emergency and EMS will remain available to the community and will be re-routed to surrounding healthcare centers such as the Grande Prairie Regional Hospital.
For non-emergencies residents are asked to call Health Link at 8-1-1, for 24/7 inquiries.
