Glens Falls Hospital will begin restarting elective\/non-emergent procedures beginning Feb. 22.
\n\u201cGlens Falls Hospital staff will be reaching out to our patients to confirm rescheduled dates for their surgeries and procedures,\u201d said the hospital\u2019s Chief Operating Officer Paul Scimeca. \u201cWe\u2019ll continue to increase capacity as quickly as possible in order to care for those patients waiting for a surgical procedure.\u201d
\nThe hospital curtailed non-emergent procedures voluntarily in late December as the number of hospitalized COVID patients increased at GFH and throughout the region. This was to redeploy staff to medical\/surgical units to care for the increased number of inpatients.<\/p>\n
