Bridgewater: Non-Urgent Health Care Clinic Ready To Open

A non-urgent health care clinic will open this afternoon at the regional hospital in Bridgewater. The clinic will tackle issues such as minor cuts, bumps, sore throats, sinus problems and prescription refills. It's being provided by South Shore Health to help ease the congestion in their emergency departments. Spokeswoman Theresa Hawkesworth says the clinic is the start of a solution.



The clinic will be open Mondays and Wednesdays this month from 3-9pm. It is located on the main floor of the hospital. People are required to make appointments during those days from 10am-noon by calling 527-5815.
