About Wolseley Memorial Integrated Health Centre

Wolseley Memorial Integrated Health Centre is an 80-bed facility operated by the Saskatchewan Health Authority, serving Wolseley and the surrounding rural communities approximately one hour east of Regina. The emergency department operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, providing triage-based care for urgent medical needs, with a virtual physician program enabling nursing staff to consult remotely with experienced ER physicians for patient assessment. Patients requiring a higher level of care beyond what this facility can provide are transferred to a larger centre, making WMICC the essential first point of emergency contact for this region.

Tips Before You Go

• Call 9-1-1 immediately for life-threatening emergencies — do not drive yourself if your condition is severe.
• For non-urgent health questions at any hour, call HealthLine 811 before making the trip to the ER — a registered nurse can help you decide the right level of care.
• You cannot make an appointment at the emergency department. Patients are seen by urgency, not arrival order, so expect to wait if your condition is non-critical.
• Visiting specialist services are available at various times each month. Call 306-698-4440 in advance to find out which specialists are scheduled and when.
• Laboratory and X-ray services are available on weekdays during regular hours and require a physician's order — plan routine diagnostic visits accordingly.
• Minor procedures such as mole, wart, or toenail removal are done by appointment only through outpatient/ambulatory care, not through the emergency department.

What to Bring

• Valid government-issued photo ID (driver's licence, passport)
