The Search for ER Doctors Continues

The search for new doctors to work at the Emergency Room at the Regional Hospital is coming along. Efforts have been ramped up after the Region "B" Health Authority closed the Sussex ER last month on a weekend so the doctor could be transferred to Saint John. Conservative Health Critic Margaret Ann Blaney tells CHSJ News, a conversation today with the acting head of the ER at the Regional, Dr. John Doirnon brings hope that help is on the way.

Dr. Doirnon is quick to stress a package has to be in place and the Department of Health remain focused on working with them. Last month, Health Minister Murphy told us funding for additional positions is in place.
