Pinawa Hospital Reopens Emergency Room Amid Staff Shortages
The Pinawa Hospital reopened its emergency room on May 26 ahead of Dr. Leisel Gillis arrival from South Africa. Gillis can practice in Manitoba for six months under a ministerial permit, while long term viability remains uncertain and recruitment continues with no Lac du Bonnet Clinic physician yet found. In Birch River a 32 year old man was beaten on Main Street, with two suspects charged with attempted murder. Marcel Paul faces multiple charges in Portage and Winnipeg, with court dates set in June and prior bail conditions. Carman Memorial Hospital risks losing up to five nurses next year as patient days drop, though no board approval yet. Theft at Brunkild of 25,000 worth of herbicide from the UGG elevator follows a prior Kane incident, with Headingly RCMP investigating.
