An ER closure is planned for a hospital in the Quad Counties.
Officials at the Strait Richmond Hospital in Evanston say their emergency department will be closed from 8 a.m. Friday until 8 a.m. Saturday.
They say the unavailability of physicians to cover the shift is the reason for the unexpected temporary closure.
You’re asked to go to another ER or call 911 with a medical emergency; you can call 811 for any non-urgent issues.
