Developers donate $500,000 to Brampton's new hospital Peel Memorial

William Osler Health Systems warns of the early closure today (July 10) of the Urgent Care Centre at Peel Memorial Hospital in Brampton.

The care centre is forced to close at 5 p.m. rather than the usual 9 p.m. with the hospital experiencing unprecedented staffing shortages.

“Like a number of hospitals, we are experiencing human resource challenges and continue to explore all strategies to help our teams continue to provide exemplary care to our community,” William Osler Health System said.

“Our top priority remains the health and safety of our patients, staff, physicians, volunteers and our community. We ask for our community’s understanding during this difficult time.”

The Urgent Care Centre is expected to reopen on Monday with normal hours, but William Osler Health System reminds residents that the Emergency Departments at Brampton Civic Hospital and Etobicoke General Hospital remain open for emergency or urgent care.
