Tips Before You Go

• Beausejour District Hospital is a small rural ER — for life-threatening emergencies such as heart attack, stroke, or major trauma, call 911 immediately so paramedics can begin care en route.
• If you require specialist care not available on-site, you may be referred or transferred to Selkirk Regional Health Centre or a Winnipeg hospital — ask staff about next steps early in your visit.
• The on-site Dynacare Laboratory can handle diagnostic bloodwork, which can help speed up your assessment during an ER visit.
• The hospital also houses a Primary Health Care Centre with physiotherapy, mental health, and other services — if your need is non-urgent, ask about booking through the clinic instead of using the ER.
• Contact the hospital at 204-268-1076 before arriving if you have questions about whether your condition requires emergency care or can be managed through the outpatient clinic.

About ER Wait Times

Emergency departments use triage. Patients with more serious conditions are seen first, regardless of arrival time.

Wait times are estimates based on Manitoba 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.
