Waterloo-Wellington hospitals continue to experience increased volumes in our emergency departments.
Patients requiring care will be prioritized based on urgency, regardless of the hospital you choose to go to. If your need is less urgent, we ask that you please be prepared for longer wait times.
Our team members continue to come to work tirelessly every day to support patients and provide the best care possible; please be patient and kind as we do our best to see you as soon as we can.
