Many health clinics are open across Chatham-Kent today for non-emergency care.
The Chatham-Kent Health Alliance ERs are open 24 hours a day in both Wallaceburg and Chatham for those who are critically ill, but anyone dealing with colds, ear infections, and sprained limbs are asked to make use of one of the Family Health Teams or Community Health centres.
Officials with Chatham-Kent EMS are also asking that residents go over their healthcare options before calling 911 to make sure paramedics and ambulances aren’t being tied up with non-emergency situations.
