The emergency room at Surrey Memorial Hospital is reopening after flooding almost two weeks ago forced the closure of B.C.'s busiest emergency department.
Patients had to be evacuated from the emergency room on Nov. 19 when a watermain was broken during a construction project, sending water gushing into the facility.
Since then, crews have been working feverishly to clean up the mess and fix the damage to the ward and medical imaging areas.
The Fraser Health Authority said the ER and the imaging areas will open Monday at 8 a.m.
At the same time, officials will close an urgent-care centre set up at the Jim Pattison outpatient clinic, which has been acting as on off-site emergency department.
