The Haliburton Highlands Health Service [HHHS] is currently operating with a deficit of around $442,000 as the impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic continue to be felt.
HHHS board member David O’Brien, who sits on the organization’s finance committee, informed the rest of the board last Thursday [Jan. 28] that around $258,000 of that total comes from lost revenues as a result of COVID-19 service closures, with an additional $184,000 related to additional staffing costs to cover overtime and recruitment drives during the pandemic.
