Today, Thursday, March 10th all GCH clinics and services are operating on their normal schedule. Director of Communications and Marketing Ashley King made the announcement.
The hospital also provided tips for staying safe in winter weather.
Walking on snow or ice is especially treacherous and wearing proper footwear is essential. A pair of well-insulated boots with good rubber treads is a must for walking during or after a winter storm. Keeping a pair of rubber over-shoes with good treads which fit over your street shoes is a good idea during the winter months.
When walking on an icy or snow-covered walkway, take short steps and walk at a slower pace so you can react quickly to a change in traction.
When walking on a sidewalk which has not been cleared and you must walk in the street, walk against the traffic and as close to the curb as you can.
Be on the lookout for vehicles which may have lost traction and are slipping towards you. Be aware that approaching vehicles may not be able to stop at crosswalks or traffic signals.
