Temporary closure at Porcupine Carragana hospital

The Porcupine Carragana Hospital will be closed for four days.

The Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) announced that the closure will be in effect from Dec. 24 at 8 a.m. to Dec. 28 at 8 a.m.

The SHA cited a staffing issue as the reason, as they’re unable to provide physician support.

If an emergency transpires, the SHA advises utilizing the Kelvington or Tisdale hospital.
