DEEP RIVER AND DISTRICT HEALTH BEGINS FLOORING REPLACEMENT AS PART OF ONGOING EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT RENOVATION PROJECT
Deep River and District Health (DRDH) is pleased to share that upcoming flooring replacement work will soon begin as part of its ongoing Emergency Department renovation project.
Beginning Monday, May 25, 2026, flooring upgrades will take place throughout facility corridors over the next several weeks. These improvements are part of DRDH’s continued commitment to enhancing the environment for patients, residents, families, visitors, and care teams.
The work will be completed in phases to help minimize disruption and maintain access to services across the organization. During this time, patients and visitors will experience temporary changes to hallway access and movement as construction progresses through different areas of the facility. In addition, some entrances will be temporarily closed while specific sections are being completed; however, all hospital services will continue to operate as normal.
Clear signage will be posted throughout the hospital and care sites to assist with wayfinding and to help ensure safe and efficient navigation around any impacted areas. DRDH will also continue to provide updates as the project advances.
These flooring replacements are an important part of broader infrastructure improvements within the Emergency Department and surrounding clinical spaces, supporting a safer, more modern, and welcoming care environment that has been co-designed with input from team members, patients, and families.
DRDH appreciates the patience, understanding, and cooperation of patients, visitors, residents, and team members as these important upgrades are completed.
