Lake of the Woods Hospital Beds

The Lake of the Woods District Hospital has seen some relief for patients awaiting spots in long term care homes.

All the acute care beds at the hospital were being used last month, and many patients were needing long term care beds.

Chief Executive Officer Marc Balcaen says they've seen a decrease in the number of inpatients waiting for beds.

The hospital was given special status that will give them priority for any long term care bed that becomes available.
