The confirmation came in a copy of a letter from Andrew Will, chief executive officer of SHA on Sept. 24 to Lloydminster Mayor Gerald Aalbers, who voiced his concerns about patient and visitor safety.
In the letter, circulated at the Lloydminster Concerned Citizens for Seniors Care Society meeting on Oct. 2, Will wrote, "Work is already underway to make arrangements to have the work complete, with the goal of completing this project before the winter season."
"We understand the importance of ensuring patients, families and visitors can access the hospital with ease and we share your view that current conditions need to be addressed promptly."
Will went on to say maintaining the lot in good condition is an essential first step in the health journey for all who rely on the the hospital in the city and surrounding region.
