Canadian ER waits times: Quickest Visits: Half of non-urgent patients are out in 2.6 hours (90% within 7.6 hours). Serious Cases: Patients who are more ill are prioritized and seen faster, but their total visit time is longer — 90% wrap up within 10 hours. The Bottleneck: The real crisis is for those needing admission to a hospital bed. Average waits hit 22 hours (3x the target), and 1 in 10 patients wait over two days just to get a bed. I think Quebec province is the worst. Source: https://www.cma.ca/healthcare-for-real/why-are-er-times-so-l... | ||
