Interior Health is working to improve emergency access at South Okanagan General Hospital in Oliver.
The health authority is creating three new emergency department drop-off parking stalls at SOGH, where construction (paving) will occur until Oct. 2.
During this time the entrance to the emergency department will be temporarily closed. Anyone accessing the hospital, including those accessing the emergency department, should use the main entrance.
The hospital’s general parking lot is not impacted by this construction.
Anyone wishing to access the Oliver Health Centre by vehicle is asked to enter via Spillway Road.
Once paving is complete, a rainbow crosswalk will be painted in front of the emergency department as a symbol of diversity and inclusion.
