The Sylvan Lake Advanced Ambulatory Care Service (SLAACS) will be closed from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Wednesday, November 23 due to physician illness.
The service will reopen at 3 p.m. and run until 10 p.m. Regular hours of operation (7:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.) will resume on Thursday, November 24.
AHS says this temporary closure is necessary as the service cannot operate without a physician onsite. Efforts to secure locum physician coverage on short notice to support the morning shift have been exhausted, say officials.
Patients arriving at the Sylvan Lake Community Health Centre to receive care at the Advanced Ambulatory Care Service during the temporary closure will be redirected to other available care options as appropriate to their needs. AHS says these options include returning when the service resumes, booking an appointment with a family doctor, or calling Health Link at 811 for medical information and advice.
