More ER closures announced

Officials with the Nova Scotia Health Authority have announced more local emergency room closures.

The Strait Richmond Hospital’s emergency room in Evanston will close from 6 a.m. until 8 a.m. Saturday and Wednesday.

A lack of physician coverage is the reason for the closures.
