100 MILE HOUSE, B.C. — There will be two more 13 hour emergency room closures in 100 Mile House this month as the community continues to have to navigate periods without emergency coverage.
Interior Health says the ER at the 100 Mile District General Hospital will be closed from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. this Thursday (July 23) and Friday (July 24). People in need of emergency care are being told to head to Cariboo Memorial Hospital in Williams Lake, which itself was closed for 10 hours last night.
“Interior Health recognizes that these changes may have a significant impact on the community and that transparent notification is important,” the health authority said, in a statement.
“Our teams remain committed to working to cover these shifts right up to the day of each potential service interruption. If coverage is secured and an interruption is avoided, we will provide an update to the community.”
