Maternity diversion from Ridge Meadows Hospital coming this weekend

There is a maternity diversion coming to Ridge Meadows Hospital this weekend.
Fraser Health has announced that due to a gap in obstetrician-gynecologist coverage at the Maple Ridge facility, a maternity diversion will be in place from Friday, June 5 at 8 a.m. until Monday, June 8 at 8 a.m.
Expectant mothers who are in labour or have a pregnancy concern are asked to please call the maternity unit at 604-463-4111 before going to the hospital, and staff will direct them to the appropriate hospital
