The emergency department at Campbellton Regional Hospital has now reopened.

President and CEO of Vitalite Health Network Gilles Lanteigne says they now have enough nurses and doctors to return to 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

He adds ambulatory care services and non urgent elective surgeries will resume gradually over the next few days.

The Hospital closed last month after a health care professional who worked at the hospital tested positive for the COVID-19 virus and had been in contact with about 50 employees.

There are currently 24 active cases of COVID-19 in Zone 5.
