Due to a rising number of flu cases, staff in our Emergency Department and Children’s Emergency Department will be wearing face masks. 😷

If you are waiting in those areas for care, masks will be available and we would encourage patients and visitors to also wear a mask.

The best way to protect yourself and your family is by having the flu jab, if eligible, and by following good hand hygiene practices.
