Emergency hours changes Tuesday and Wednesday
Heads up District of Sparwood and area residents – Interior Health is advising of changes to emergency department hours at the health centre due to limited physician availability for Tuesday and Wednesday this week (August 13 and 14).
Hours of operation are normally seven days a week, from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Please note the adjusted ED hours for the following days:
Tuesday, August 13 – open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Wednesday, August 14 – open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Residents should take note of the following if they require care when the emergency department is closed:
In the event of an emergency, call 9-1-1. Residents should proceed to the emergency department in Fernie.
If individuals are unsure about what services they require, call HealthLink BC at 8-1-1. The toll-free line provides 24-hour, confidential health information and advice from a registered nurse.
Interior Health regrets these temporary changes to usual service and will provide the community with regular updates when there are changes to normal operating hours.
