Due to the weather and road conditions, all non-urgent surgeries booked at the Owen Sound and Meaford hospitals for Friday have been cancelled.
Staff are currently working to re-schedule the surgeries as soon as possible.
The ambulatory care department at the Owen Sound Hospital is also closed Friday.
Anyone with a pre-scheduled appointment at any of the other GBHS Hospitals, such as Lion’s Head, Markdale, Meaford, Southampton and Wiarton, officials ask you call the hospital before you leave home.
The Emergency Departments at all GBHS hospitals are operating as usual 27/7. Any emergency surgery required by patients coming into the emergency department will be performed as normal.
Due to roads closures, the flow of patients and staff into and out of hospital has been impacted.
Updates on GBHS hospital services will be posted on the website at www.gbhs.on.ca and on twitter at @greybrucehealth.
