Summers County ARH will make temporary parking and entrance changes beginning October 19 while construction takes place on its Emergency Department. The Rural Health Clinic’s parking lot and main entrance will be closed for grading and paving during the work.
Patients are advised to park in the hospital’s general parking area and enter through the main hospital entrance. That entrance is the route for people seeking access to the Emergency Department, pharmacy or clinics, according to the information provided by the hospital.
Staff will be available to assist patients during the temporary changes. The hospital expects services to continue without interruption while construction is underway. The work is estimated to take two to four weeks.
The announcement does not specify a calendar year for the October 19 start date or provide a precise completion date. It also does not give further details about the construction schedule or identify a contractor. Patients’ stated access options during the work are general hospital parking and the main hospital entrance.
The changes affect the Rural Health Clinic’s parking lot and main entrance; the information provided does not say that clinic or hospital services will close. The expected two-to-four-week period is an estimate, and no additional timeline was provided.
