Just before 11 a.m. this morning, the Dauphin Fire Department responded to a small fire at the Dauphin Regional Health Centre.

They received reports of general fire alarms and upon arrival were informed of a small fire in one of the emergency rooms because of some construction work.

Hospital maintenance staff extinguished the fire before the DFD arrived, but wanted to ensure there weren’t any embers that may have carried in the wall space.

Firefighters used thermal imaging to scan the area and found nothing of concern.

The fire department would like to recognize the staff of DRHC for their actions taken to contain the situation so quickly.
