Limited staffing means overnight closures at Cormorant Island Community Health Centre emergency department will be ongoing.
The closures from 7 p.m. to 8 a.m. are continuing until at least Nov. 30. Island Health asks anyone going through a medical emergency not to go to the department while it is closed and call 911.
They add protocols are in place to transport patients to the correct alternate site.
