Alberta Health Services (AHS) has announced that the Sylvan Lake Advanced Ambulatory Care Service (SLAACS) will be closed on Monday until 3 p.m. due to a gap in physician coverage.
They confirm the Service will resume operations from 3 p.m. until 10 p.m. and normal operations of 7:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. will resume July 5.
“This temporary closure is necessary as the service cannot operate without a physician onsite. Options to secure alternative coverage have been exhausted, and this temporary closure is a last resort,” AHS said in a statement.
Officials say patients arriving at the Community Health Centre for care from the Advanced Ambulatory Care Service during this time will be redirected to other care options as appropriate. The options include returning later in the day when the service resumes, booking an appointment with a family doctor, or calling Health Link at 811 for medical information and advice.
