Victoria Hospital continues to experience overcapacity
Overcapacity continues to be an issue at the Victoria Hospital.
During the weekend, the Prince Albert Parkland Health Region (PAPHR) issued a release notifying the public that the hospital was experiencing a significant overcapacity in their inpatient units.
Carol Gregoryk, vice-president of integrated health services for the PAPHR, said it is not unusual for the hospital to experience an influx of visitors during the fall and winter months.
She said it is protocol to notify the public of overcrowding issues once they hit an overcapacity of approximately 10 people.
