Residents in Kings County are expressing frustration about the frequent closure of the Kings County Memorial Hospital’s emergency room in Montague.
Residents recently packed a room at the Cavendish Wellness Centre to discuss the frequent closures with Health Minister Robert Mitchell.
Since last fall, the ER has been closed more than 20 times.
The health minister says today’s doctors are different than those of yesteryear and don’t wish to take on a large patient load.
