ILLINOIS (WAND) - Some Central Illinois health organizations have closed clinics for Thursday due to continued snowfall.
As winter weather continues to cause roads to be dangerous, changes will include the following:
Carle Health
Carle Health announced all Champaign-Urbana and surrounding region clinic locations will move to fully virtual care on Thursday, Feb. 3. This change includes no facility access at all non-hospital locations, in Champaign, Urbana, Mattoon, Monticello, Mahomet, Rantoul, Effingham, Tuscola and Danville.
Convenient Care locations are also closing Thursday. Patients should consider if they can safely travel to Convenient Care Plus locations in Urbana, Mattoon and Danville more more emergent needs.
COVID-19 drive-thru testing sites in Champaign, Mattoon and Danville will stay closed.
There will be some scheduled procedures and surgeries continuing on-site, in order to support those with the most critical care needs. Patients who are impacted have been contacted to confirm continuing appointments. Carle emergency care services are always available and open.
Carle said it is encouraging the public to stay indoors and off roads as much as possible during winter weather. Before a person leaves, they should make sure their vehicle has a full gas tank and a go-kit is packed. A kit should at least include battery jumper cables, a flashlight, a blanket and a fully charged cell phone.
