NL Health Services has announced March 18th as the date for the return of obstetric services at James Paton Memorial Regional Hospital in Gander. Services resume at 8 o’clock that morning. Three of four obstetricians are now in place at the hospital. Midwifery and a nursing team have also been established to support patients. Staffing shortages continue to be a problem, so NL Health Services says it’s working to prevent any intermittent disruptions.
Patients seeking obstetrical services before the March 18th reopening are advised to go to the hospital in Grand Falls-Windsor
