The Interior Health Authority says the Health Centre in Blue River will be closed on Monday and Tuesday next week due to limited staffing.

IHA says it will return to normal operations on March 27.

Anyone needing emergency care is asked to visit health facilities in Clearwater or to call 9-1-1.

They also recommend calling HealthLink BC at 8-1-1 if you are unsure of your need to seek emergency care.

Regular hours for the Blue River Health Centre are Monday to Thursday from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM.
