Tips Before You Go

• Use the separate walk-in entrance rather than the ambulance entrance — the ED is designed to direct these patient flows differently, which helps speed up triage for everyone.
• Families with children should know there is a dedicated pediatric waiting area and pediatric treatment zone (Zone 4) with age-appropriate equipment for patients from birth to 16.
• Patients experiencing mental health or substance use crises are seen in a dedicated, separate zone (Zone 5) — staff can direct you or your loved one there upon arrival.
• If parking costs are a concern during a prolonged stay, ask your care team's social worker about financial hardship parking permits available through Langley Memorial's parking program.
• TransLink buses 503, 560, and 595 all stop near the hospital — the closest stop is just a 3-minute walk, making transit a reliable option if driving isn't possible.

What to Bring

• Valid government-issued photo ID (e.g., BC driver's licence or passport)
• BC Services Card or provincial health card
• List of current medications, dosages, and prescribing doctors
• Any relevant medical records, recent test results, or specialist letters
• List of known allergies (medications and other)
• Phone charger or portable battery pack for longer waits
• Comfort items such as a book, headphones, or snacks for extended waits
• A trusted friend or family member who can support you and help communicate with staff
