Lillooet District Hospital and Health Centre is a Level 1 Community Hospital operated by Interior Health, serving Lillooet, Lytton, and surrounding Fraser Canyon communities from its location at 951 Murray St. The emergency department is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, providing around-the-clock urgent care alongside diagnostic services, laboratory, and inpatient care across six acute care beds. As a small rural community hospital, patients with complex conditions such as major trauma or advanced cardiac emergencies may be stabilized here and transferred to a larger regional facility for definitive care.
On-site surface parking is typical for this small rural community hospital. Contact the hospital directly at 250-256-4233 to confirm parking availability and accessibility spaces.
BC Transit's Health Connections program offers accessible transportation for non-emergency medical appointments, with a route serving the Kamloops/Lillooet corridor in partnership with Interior Health and the Village of Ashcroft. No local urban transit serves the hospital directly; patients travelling from outside the area should arrange private transportation or check BC Transit's Health Connections program for eligibility.
As a rural community hospital, Lillooet District Hospital generally experiences lower volumes than urban ERs. Mid-morning on weekdays tends to be a relatively quieter time for non-urgent presentations. Always call 9-1-1 for life-threatening emergencies regardless of time.
Like most emergency departments, evenings and weekends can see higher demand relative to available staffing at a small rural facility. If your condition is not urgent, consider visiting during weekday daytime hours when the full complement of diagnostic and support services is also available on-site.
Emergency departments use triage — patients with more serious conditions are seen first, regardless of arrival time.
Wait times are estimates based on British Columbia health data using historical volumes, current patient counts, and staffing. Actual wait times may vary.
If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 immediately.
