We want to remind you that our Emergency Department Team is here to provide urgent care when you need it. Do not neglect your health, pay attention to your symptoms and if you need prompt medical attention remember that HGH Emergency Department remains safe.
The hospital is asking for the community’s support — by saving the Emergency department for emergencies and is also asking patients who come to Emergency to prepare for longer-than-usual waits.
About COVID-19
If you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, your condition is worsening, and you are unable to manage your symptoms at home, do not hesitate to come to HGH. For example, breathing difficulties or chest pain require prompt medical attention.
However, the Ontario Ministry of Health is shifting its strategy and making publicly funded PCR testing only available to high-risk individuals who are symptomatic or at risk of severe illness from COVID-19. If your condition is stable, and you can manage your symptoms do not go to the Emergency Department to get tested. Please use the self-assessment tool provide by the Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU) for guidance and next steps.
