The Owen King EU Hospital (OKEU), a key facility within the Millennium Heights Medical Complex (MHMC), has issued a public advisory to address the current challenges faced by its Accident and Emergency Department (AED).
Due to a significant increase in patient numbers, the AED is experiencing overcrowding, resulting in longer waiting times for individuals seeking emergency medical care. This situation underscores the urgent need for public cooperation to ensure that the hospital can continue to provide timely and effective emergency services for critical cases.
Members of the public are encouraged to seek alternative care for minor health-related conditions at the following healthcare facilities:
- Dr. Betty Wells Urban Polyclinic
- Contact: 468-8880
- Gros Islet Polyclinic
- Contact: 468-7637 | 468-7630 | 723-0663

- Soufriere Hospital
- Contact: 468-7601 | 468-7603 | 485-8681
These facilities are equipped to manage urgent but non-life-threatening conditions, helping to alleviate the strain on the AED and improve service delivery for all patients. The OKEU and MHMC remain committed to delivering high-quality healthcare services and thank the public for their understanding and cooperation during this challenging time. Thank you for your continued support in sharing critical health updates with the public.
