Southern Health advised today via Public Service Announcement that, due to impending bitter weather and limited road access, there may be delays and cancellations of appointments and scheduled events.

Power outages may also affect phone and online services, which might mean they will be unable to provide notification of cancellation according to their announcement.

Southern Health warns that you call your health care provider’s office to confirm your appointment before leaving your home.

Home Care clients are encouraged to activate their backup plans with family members and friends and to call the after hours number as required.
