Fraser Health announces a temporary interruption of emergency department services at Mission Memorial Hospital in Mission, British Columbia, due to physician staffing challenges. The disruption runs from 5 p.m. Sunday until Monday at 8 a.m.
Patients already in the ER at 5 p.m. will be seen before the shift ends at 11 p.m. Nurses remain on site to provide basic care and assist with transfers to other hospitals for urgent cases. Fraser Health is coordinating with B.C. Emergency Health Services to redirect patients needing higher-level care. Anyone with life-threatening symptoms-chest pain, breathing difficulties, or severe bleeding-should call 911 for transport to the nearest appropriate facility.
