Where
possible, try to
plan you and your
family’s healthcare
needs in advance
this Christmas
holiday.
Our Emergency
Department will be
very busy at this
time, but there are
other options
available for
medical care.
-
If you need to
renew a
prescription or
get a minor
illness, such as
a cough or cold,
treated,
visit your
family doctor
now. Some
healthcare
services will
have reduced
availability
during this
time.
-
If your doctor’s
practice is
closed during
the holidays,
there should
always be a
doctor on call
to help or minor
injuries can be
treated at one
of the
local Accident
and Medical
Centres.
-
If your child
needs dental
care
during the
school holidays,

for a list
of open dental
clinics.
These tips will help
us keep our
Emergency Department
for the many serious
emergencies
requiring urgent
medical care that
happen at this time
of year. |
