Winnipeg has 7 emergency departments — 7 open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 7 of 7 currently have live wait time data. Right now, 172 people are waiting across Winnipeg emergency departments.
Wait time data for Winnipeg is sourced from Shared Health Manitoba 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 Winnipeg 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.
Check wait times on this page before leaving. ERstat updates every 5 minutes and shows all Winnipeg ERs sorted from shortest to longest wait. Each hospital page includes a 12-hour forecast chart and a “Best Time to Visit” pattern based on historical data.
If your condition is not life-threatening, consider whether a walk-in clinic, urgent care centre, or pharmacist could help instead. Manitoba pharmacists can assess and prescribe for many common conditions with no appointment needed. See what your pharmacist can treat →
