PeaceHealth ER Overwhelmed
(Vancouver, WA) -- PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center is telling people to avoid its emergency room if they can get treatment elsewhere. The hospital says it's overwhelmed with people who have the flu, RSV and other health needs. The staff in the emergency department will treat everyone who arrives, but people with less serious health problems may wait a long time. People without emergency health needs should call their primary care provider or go to an urgent care to avoid delays.
