DALLAS - Texas Health Resources is making policy changes because of the recent surge in COVID-19 cases.
The hospital system said the number of COVID-19 patients has been pushing hospital staff and bed capacity to the limit.
So starting Thursday, all elective and non-essential surgeries and procedures will be postponed.
The policy applies to all hospitals wholly owned by the health care company.
Anyone with a medical procedure that is coming up is urged to contact their doctor.
