The Emergency Department at Sackville Memorial Hospital will be closed again this weekend due to a shortage of nurses.

Horizon Health Network says this will go into effect at 4 o’clock on Friday afternoon.

Ambulances will be diverted to other hospitals, and anyone needing emergency care will have to go to another hospital.

Regular 24-hour emergency services will resume on Monday at 8am.
