The emergency room at the Indian Health Services hospital in Rapid City, South Dakota, will temporarily close, the federal government announced Tuesday, a move that some tribal officials say will threaten lives.
The Sioux San Hospital emergency department is set to be closed on Sept. 20 due primarily to the age of the facility, IHS officials said, though the hospital will continue to offer urgent care services around-the-clock for needs that are not complicated or life-threatening.
