The Houston Health Care Centre is close to being able to provide 24 hour emergency service, 7 days a week.
Health Services Administrator, Andrew McLetchie says they are close to finding the one extra registered nurse needed to extend the services. "We are currently able to provide 12 hour service 7 days a week from 8:30 in the morning to 8:30 at night" says MacLetchie. That is a major leap from the 8:30 - 12:30 service that used to be provided.
It is hoped the RN recruitment will be complete within a month or so. Typically, the Houston Health Care Centre handles 120 patients per week through planned an unplanned visits.
