The Eastern Regional Health Authority (ERHA) has confirmed temporary service adjustments at the Sangre Grande Enhanced Health Centre during the holiday period. In an official announcement, the health authority disclosed that the general practitioner’s clinic facility will be non-operational on Christmas Day, December 25th.
Patients requiring medical attention during this temporary closure have been directed to utilize the Emergency Department services available at the Sangre Grande Hospital Campus, which remains fully operational to handle healthcare needs. The proximity of these facilities ensures continued access to medical services for community members.
Normal operations at the Enhanced Health Centre will recommence on December 26th at 9:00 AM, following the Christmas holiday closure. The ERHA has formally expressed regret for any potential inconvenience resulting from this seasonal service adjustment.
Minister of Health Dr. Lackram Bodoe’s oversight ensures that such operational decisions align with the national healthcare strategy. The authority emphasized its ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest standards of healthcare delivery while managing necessary temporary service modifications during public holidays.
