Lamb Foggo Returns To Longer Weekday Hours
The Lamb Foggo Urgent Care Centre [UCC] has returned to its pre-winter plan weekday hours of noon to 8.00pm during weekdays, BHB has confirmed.
A spokesperson said, “Bermuda Hospitals Board [BHB] today confirms that the Lamb Foggo Urgent Care Centre [UCC] has returned to its pre-winter plan weekday hours of noon to 8pm from Monday 1 February 2021. Weekend hours and services remain the same, 9am to 9pm, with X-ray service.
“Weekday hours were reduced to 4pm to 8pm between 18 December to 31 January so that clinical resources could focus on the Emergency Department, where there is usually an increase in seriously unwell people during the winter period.
Dr Chikezie Dean Okereke, Chief of Emergency, comments: “We are very happy to return to our usual weekday opening hours at the UCC once more.
“Focusing our resources on the Emergency Department in December and January was once more very helpful in managing an unusually high number of very unwell and staff-dependent patients, who required multiple diagnostics. With lower than usual flu this year, however, we now feel comfortable returning to our pre-winter plan hours.
“We appreciate the understanding of the community as we seek to do our best to care for the people who need our services.”
