Emergency entrance at the Shaunavon Hospital.


Sask Energy has been on site at the Shaunavon Hospital this morning investigating a strong odor coming from the Acute Care and Primary Health Care Clinic areas.

The local Fire Department was also on scene and are indicating that the odor is coming from the basement directly below the Acute Care area.

They are working to determine the definitive source of the odor.

The Cypress Health Region appropriate staff have been deployed to the facility and they have established their Emergency Operations Center as a precautionary measure to ensure all necessary resources are available.

The Emergency Department at the Shaunavon Hospital remains open, but is being temporarily relocated to the Long Term Care side of the building.

If you have an emergency, please go to the Shaunavon Hospital and enter through the Long Term Care doors.
