The Shaunavon Hospital and Care Centre will be implementing a temporary disruption of services during the following three occasions:

·         Tuesday, February 14th @ 7:00 pm to Wednesday, February 15th @ 7:30 am
·         Wednesday, February 15th @ 7:00 pm to Thursday, February 16th @ 7:30 am
·         Monday, February 20th @ 7:00 pm to Tuesday, February 21st @ 7:30 am

During these three 12-hour timelines, there will be no emergency outpatient service or acute admissions available at the Shaunavon Hospital.  Long term care and community-based programs and services will not be affected.  The disruptions are the result of registered nursing unavailability for the three 12-hour shifts in question.

As is always the case, the public are encouraged to contact 9-1-1 if they are faced with a medical emergency.  An ambulance will be immediately dispatched to assist you with your emergency and transport you to the nearest appropriate acute emergency department.  In addition, the provincial HealthLine can be contacted 24 hours per day, 7 days per week for non-urgent health-related questions … number is 1-877-800-0002.
