Emergency Rooms in Pemberton

Pemberton has 1 emergency department.

Wait time data for Pemberton is sourced from EdWaitTimes.ca and updates as frequently as every 15 minutes. ERstat displays the estimated time from triage registration to being seen by a physician.

All emergency departments in Pemberton use the Canadian Triage and Acuity Scale (CTAS) to prioritize patients. Patients with more serious conditions are always seen first, regardless of arrival time or displayed wait. A shorter posted wait does not guarantee a shorter visit. It depends on the severity of your condition relative to other patients in the department.
