Best Times to Visit

Quieter times: No historical wait time data is available for this facility. As a small 2-stretcher community emergency unit, early mornings on weekdays are generally quieter periods for rural CLSCs. Call (418) 393-2572 before visiting to assess current conditions.

Busier times: No historical wait time data is available. As with most emergency facilities, evenings, weekends, and holidays may be busier. Given the very limited capacity of 2 stretchers, even a small increase in patient volume can extend wait times significantly.
