No on-site physician at Beaverlodge Municipal Hospital ED evening of Jan. 2

Jan 2, 2026 | 2:20 PM

The Beaverlodge Municipal Hospital emergency department will be without an on-site physician Friday, Jan. 2.

Due to an inability to secure physician coverage, there will be no on-site physician from 8:00 p.m. tonight until 8:00 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 3.

Patients are still asked to call 911 if they have a medical emergency, as EMS will remain available to reroute callers to surrounding facilities.

Nursing staff will remain on-site in the Emergency Department, providing urgent triage and assessments.

The Virtual Emergency Physician coverage also may be available for all or part of this service advisory.
