Walk-in patients and ambulances use separate entrances, so follow signage carefully when you arrive to reach the correct registration and triage area.
The ED has a dedicated area for mental health and substance-use concerns — if you or someone you're accompanying is experiencing a mental health crisis, inform triage staff immediately so you can be directed to the appropriate space.
If you require isolation due to an infectious illness, the department has four dedicated isolation rooms — inform triage staff of any symptoms such as fever, cough, or known exposure at check-in.
For non-emergency follow-up care, the hospital's renovated community outpatient services area offers rapid access clinics, IV therapy, and wound care closer to home — ask your care team if these services are appropriate for you.

Wait times are estimates based on British Columbia health data. Actual wait times may vary.
This hospital does not publish a live wait, so the figure above comes from our model rather than from its own feed. We publish how that model performs where it can be checked, at the hospitals that do publish. See the accuracy scorecard, or how we work the number out.
