Niagara Health is undergoing a number of changes in Critical Care today to respond to significant healthcare system pressures in Niagara and across the province.
Niagara Health and Niagara Region Public Health are working with community partners to share information on public health guidelines and COVID-19 vaccinations.
We strongly urge the community to follow public health measures to minimize further increases in COVID-19 cases in our region and help us protect capacity for life-saving critical care and other services for COVID and non-COVID patients.
Lynn Guerriero, Niagara Health President and Interim CEO posted the following message on Twitter. Please share.
Our teams are working extremely hard to do everything possible to minimize the impact on patient care at Niagara Health. But the unrelenting pressures on the healthcare system require we continue to adjust in order to build capacity for life-saving critical care for COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 patients.
Niagara Health is experiencing unprecedented pressures and needs our community’s support to help protect capacity for life-saving critical care and other patient services. The situation is serious in Niagara, as it is across the province.
An outbreak of COVID-19 has been declared on the sixth floor at Niagara Health’s Welland Site.
In the strongest terms, Niagara Health urges people of all ages to continue following public health measures to minimize further increases in COVID-19 cases in our region and help us protect capacity for life-saving critical care and other services amid unprecedented pressures on the healthcare system.
