A hospital in Maine announced it would suspend emergency-level care at its walk-in location due to a staffing shortage, coming about a week after a facility in Minnesota suspended its urgent care and emergency room service.
York Hospital said it is suspending emergency care at the Wells, Maine, facility starting Oct. 25.
