Temporary closure of Blood Collection

Lamèque, September 4, 2024 - Vitalité Health Network advises the population of Lamèque and surrounding areas that Blood Collection (bloodwork) at the Lamèque Hospital and CHC will be closed as of Friday, September 6, 2024. This temporary closure is due to circumstances beyond the Network’s control.

Blood Collection will resume regular operations at the Lamèque Hospital and CHC on Monday, September 16, at 7:30 a.m.

During this period, if your doctor determines that you need blood work that cannot wait until the reopening (appointment or walk-in) you will need to go to another hospital in the Acadian Peninsula or Chaleur region. You'll need to go to a nearby blood collection center (i.e., Enfant-Jésus Hospital RHSJ†, Tracadie Hospital or Chaleur Regional Hospital).
