The Wingham and District Hospital will once again see an emergency department closure.

Due to a health human resource shortage, the ED will close at 6am on Friday and reopen on Saturday at 8am.

Paramedics remain available during the closure and will re-route to the nearest open emergency department.

Nearby hospitals include Listowel, Palmerston, Seaforth and Clinton.

The Listowel-Wingham Hospitals Alliance says this temporary measure is one they regret to have to make.
