On April 22 we had a pipe elbow failure in our Emergency Department (ED) causing a significant water leak. Crews are assessing the impact and we are in the process of water abatement. Our ED is open, but several rooms are currently offline which could increase wait times. Some surgeries are also being rescheduled.
Medical Staff Reduced Availability: Urology and Infectious Disease
Please note the referral guidelines below, due to reduced availability of medical staff in those medical specialties:
Urology
The Urology Clinic is accepting referrals for urgent/STAT patients. Currently they are accepting routine referrals only for empaneled Valley patients.
Infectious Disease
The Infectious Disease service will still provide 24/7 consultation service but now consultations placed after 1:00 PM may not be seen until the following day. For ambulatory referrals, please note that e-consults went live starting Nov. 27 and this option may get your questions answered more expediently.
