Health Care
The hospital in Southampton, with a staff of 105, is part of the Grey Bruce Health Services' network of hospitals in northern Bruce and Grey Counties. Its full-time emergency department has the second highest volume of emergency visits across GBHS' hospitals, due mostly to the high summer population. The community recruited family physicians for inpatient care and emergency department coverage year round. In addition to 16 inpatient beds, the hospital offers many outpatient services. Medical clinics in both Port Elgin and Southampton have enticed doctors to the community. The hospital also houses other community health providers. Day surgery services are offered and include ear, nose and throat surgery.
