Vitalité Health Network, Friday, December 8, 2023 – Vitalité Health Network informs the public that the Outpatient Clinic at the Lamèque Hospital and Community Health Centre will be closed on Monday, December 25, 2023.

This decision is to allow staff to take vacation and rest and spend time with their loved ones during the holiday season.

Anyone in this area needing care on December 25 can call Tele-Care 811 to speak to a bilingual intake navigator and registered nurse who will help them find health information and services. Callers can discuss their symptoms with the nurse, who will recommend whether or not they should be seen by a health care provider.

Anyone needing urgent care must go to the Emergency Department of the nearest hospital.

Vitalité Health Network thanks the public for their understanding.
