The emergency department of the Seaforth Community Hospital is once again going to experience a temporary closure.
The Huron Perth Healthcare Alliance shares in a release that due to ongoing staffing issues, the ED in Seaforth will close for a short period starting at 9 p.m. on June 14. The ED will re-open at 7 a.m. on June 15, and at that point, regular 24/7 hours of operation will resume.
