The SHA says it is working on the full reopening of emergency and acute services at Broadview

"The SHA continues to work toward the full resumption of emergency room and acute care services at Broadview Union Hospital in an effort to provide a reliable, sustainable, and safe model that builds capacity in a phased fashion to minimize service disruptions." SHA said.

"The second phase of service resumption will expand emergency services through remote physician coverage of the emergency department through virtual care.

"Broadview Union Hospital currently has Alternate Level of Care (ALC) inpatients and is working toward the addition of observation beds for inpatient care in a future phase. An observation bed is a bed where the patient is placed to be observed by providers and nurses when they are not well enough to go home or they don't meet the criteria to be admitted to the hospital."
