For life-threatening emergencies such as heart attack, stroke, or severe trauma, call 911 immediately; paramedics can begin care en route and direct you to the most appropriate facility.
If you require specialist care, complex surgery, or advanced diagnostics, expect that you may be stabilized here and transferred to a larger centre in Steinbach or Winnipeg — plan accordingly and bring contact information for family members who may need to be notified.
Community pharmacies (St-Pierre Pharmacy and St. Malo Pharmacy) are located in the surrounding area, not within the hospital — fill any discharge prescriptions before their closing hours.
Telehealth services are available at this facility, which may allow remote specialist consultations without requiring transfer in some situations — ask your care team if this applies to your case.
