Cayuga Health Systems (CHS) is suspending services at the Ithaca Urgent Care starting Feb. 15.
The urgent care is located at 10 Arrowwood Drive, and all staff and resources will be reallocated to Cayuga Medical Center until the urgent care is able to reopen, according to an email Feb. 11. The urgent care is closing due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Other CHS services will remain open. These include Surgicare, Imaging and Cayuga Hematology Oncology Associates.
“Many other communities locally and across the country are experiencing the same issues and are temporarily suspending services at urgent care centers,” said John Turner, vice president of public relations for CHS. “The Cayuga Health staff continues to rise up to the many challenges that we have faced over this past year and persevere.”
