The emergency department at the Western Hospital in Alberton is closed this weekend and will be closed on Boxing Day on Wednesday.
It’s due to a lack of doctors and nurses.
The shortage means the emergency department will not be available until from now until 8.00 on Sunday evening.
Also on Wednesday from 8-8 during the day.
If you need health care services call 8-1-1 to speak to a registered nurse or go to the Prince County Hospital in Summerside.
