It was not too long ago that TVRH opened an Urgent Care Office in the building on the east side of Hwy 27/441. They have since moved it to the first floor of the hospital. Maybe it is time for management to consider turning it into a 24/7 facility to help relieve the burden on the hospital's emergency department, especially during peak season.

As things stand now not everyone who arrives at the hospital is transported by ambulance or requires the services of the ED.
