West Haldimand General Hospital will be experiencing an eight-hour planned partial power outage today.
From 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. key electrical infrastructure will be replaced at the hospital, as the old equipment needs to be replaced to avoid unplanned outages.
Temporary back-up power will be provided to ensure the hospital has the electrical capacity to support critical operations throughout the day.
The emergency department, inpatient unit, diagnostic imaging, pharmacy, and laboratory services will remain open throughout the day.
