The Listowel Memorial Hospital continues preparations to begin to admit and care for inpatients following a small fire that occurred in a construction zone on May 28th. A total of 29 patients were safely evacuated from the 1st and 2nd floor inpatient units and transferred to 7 regional hospitals.
Extensive cleaning is being conducted by a restoration company along with air quality testing conducted by health, safety, and environmental experts. Electronic equipment is being verified and checked. Supplies, linen, and medications are being restocked. Beds, mattresses, privacy curtains, and other items that may have absorbed smoke are being cleaned according to industry standards or replaced if necessary.
This work is being completed to prepare for having all of our inpatients housed on the first-floor inpatient unit of the hospital. Our second-floor unit will be out of service for several weeks to allow for restoration and cleaning of the smoke damage. The construction area where the fire occurred is on the second floor. There was no water or other damage to the hospital.
The Listowel Memorial Hospital Emergency Department remains open for all patients and community members requiring Emergency Department care. All other patient care continues, including in our operating room, diagnostic imaging, ambulatory care, and laboratory.
We do not anticipate having our 1st-floor inpatient unit available for admissions until at least Monday, June 3rd. Until then, patients requiring a hospital admission will be transported to other regional hospitals for care. There has been an exceptional response from our partner hospitals in supporting Listowel.
We continue to be grateful for the teamwork and professionalism of our staff as they dealt with a challenging incident and prepare to care for inpatients again in Listowel.
Patients experiencing a medical emergency are advised to call 911.
We regret the need to take this step and are working diligently to return to normal operations. We thank the community for their understanding.
