The North Saskatchewan River Municipal Health Holdings held their regular meeting on Monday, July 20.
The board is pleased to announce that Dr. Tshatshela has committed to a three-year contract with NSRMHH clinics. Dr. Tshatshela is a valued member of our team and we feel fortunate to have such talented and committed practitioners for our clinics.
The summer season has been a very busy time for our physicians and nurse practitioners with the increased summer population. Please keep this in mind when booking appointments.
Our emergency services in Turtleford have remained open for the summer. Please utilize our emergency department for emergency services only. If you require outpatient services, please check with the Provincial Health Line or inquire about the closest available services. Call 911 if it is an emergency.
The NSRMHH was informed there were to be no lab services at the St. Walburg Complex for the last two weeks in July. Prairie North Health Region is in the process of recruiting for the lab position there. The lack of lab services has a major impact on the clinic and the board is hopeful they will be successful in filling the position soon.
The next regular board meeting will be held on Monday, Sept. 14 at 7:30 p.m. in the RM of Mervin office, Turtleford. If anyone has any questions, they are welcome to contact the representative from their area or the office at 306-845-4144.
