Windsor Regional Hospital has been chosen as a test site for Ebola preparedness across the Erie St. Clair region.

Four hospitals in Ontario are now considered "treatment hospitals" and seven facilities including Windsor Regional are "testing hospitals".

President and CEO David Musyj says if there is a possible Ebola patient coming into an emergency room in the area, then that person will be transferred to Windsor Regional for further testing.

Musyj believes the likelihood of Ebola coming into the region is slim, but the hospital is prepared.
