Together, we did it!
One week into our official opening, the excitement is going strong at St. Joseph’s General Hospital Elliot Lake’s newly redeveloped Pharmacy!

Following our April 15th ribbon cutting and staff open house, the Pharmacy team successfully relocated on April 17th, resumed full operations on April 20th, and is now delivering care in a modern space designed for safety, efficiency, and excellence.

This milestone was made possible through the incredible generosity of our community and the St. Joseph’s Foundation, helping bring enhanced pharmacy services and better care closer to home.
“This new pharmacy space reflects the dedication, teamwork, and pride of our entire SJGHEL team as we continue to advance patient care together. I'm proud of our team, our space, and excited for the future of pharmacy care.”
— Crystal Horrigan, Pharmacy Manager

To every donor, supporter, and team member: you've helped build a healthier tomorrow. We couldn’t have done it without you!

UPDATE for March 17th, services will resume at SJGHEL including chemotherapy and surgery. All patients who are booked have been contacted. We look forward to seeing our booked patients tomorrow, please follow the instructions provided by the hospital and your physician. Our Emergency Department remains open.

We thank everyone for their patience and cooperation. Please be advised that conditions may still be hazardous. Residents are urged to exercise extreme caution when driving or walking, as roads, sidewalks, and parking areas may remain slippery and visibility may be reduced. Please also be aware that as we work to remove excess snow, parking at the hospital continues to be limited. Allow extra time for travel, slow down, and prioritize safety.

Thank you for your understanding and continued care for one another during this severe weather.

Update March 16 - Service Impact Due to Significant Weather Event –

With the current Significant Weather Event impacting Northeastern Ontario, SJGHEL is advising that all outpatient appointments and clinics, as well as elective and non-urgent surgeries planned for March 16 are cancelled and being rescheduled.

This includes chemotherapy. Dialysis services and treatment are still happening.

SJGHEL's Emergency Department continues to operate, but patients may experience longer wait times, and parking is limited.

With the significant amount of snow in the last 24 hours leading to blocked roads and highway closures, some staff are having a very challenging time in getting to the hospital.

This means we may not be able to contact all patients impacted today.

We ask for everyone’s patience, kindness and understanding as we navigate this weather emergency.

And remind anyone travelling today to be please be very careful.

Thank you.
