Brittany Broere is speaking out about some of the issues happening at her local hospital after a recent trip to the emergency department at the Drayton Valley Hospital and Care Centre 130 kilometres southwest of Edmonton.

Over the weekend, Broere took her seven-year-old sister to the Drayton Valley ER for an infection. However, because the girl had COVID-like symptoms the sisters were put in an isolation room with only a chair and no bed.

Broere said her younger sister was in too much pain to sit in a chair while waiting for a doctor, so she laid on the floor.

Alberta Health Services says it knows the current situation is not ideal. Kim Smith explains.
