The South Bruce Grey Health Centre announced that closures are due to a number of unexpected nursing staff absences.

The closures started on Friday from 5 p.m. to 7 a.m. and will repeat Saturday evening, going into Sunday morning.

The South Bruce Grey Health Centre is diverting patients to its nearest hospitals, with Hannover the closest, being 19 kilometres away.
