Ultrasound patients at Kincardine hospital are experiencing longer-than-usual wait times.

Some of the factors include staff shortages and more people than usual booking appointments for an ultrasound test.

South Bruce Grey Health Centre President and CEO Michael Barrett says this is a problem that is not happening on a local level.

 

 

Barrett says the shortage of staff is having an impact in other areas of the hospital and that is hampering their ability to deliver the same level of service that they have had in the past.
