Small B . C . community surrounded by wildfires facing more ER closures

The 100 Mile District General Hospital in British Columbia is experiencing temporary emergency room closures due to the proximity of active wildfires. The facility is scheduled to suspend emergency services from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on both Friday and Sunday.

These service interruptions occur as the surrounding community remains threatened by wildfire activity. The closures limit local access to emergency medical care during a period of heightened environmental risk.
