Happy to be a part of this :) Calgary Emergency Wait Times App - Alberta Health Services
AHS- Emergency Wait Times App for Alberta
Staff at some Calgary hospitals say the number of patients showing up at ER is higher than ever, yet wait times have not spiked as a result.
Now with ER Wait Time app from AHS, patients can know the Emergency Department Wait Times & Important Contacts.
With AHS ER app, you are able to:
• Estimated emergency department and urgent care centre wait times initially for Calgary Zone* facilities, including:
- wait times updated every two minutes
- list view showing all the wait times for the Calgary Zone
- map view showing your current location and the wait times of nearby facilities
- directions to each facility from your current location
• Important contact numbers, including:
- HealthLink: 24/7 health information and advice from registered nurses
- Poison Control (PADIS)
- Mental Health Help Line
- Kids Help Phone
We are happy to see that the AHS app has helped managing the ER wait times. As we see the benefits that this app has brought to the public, we feel very proud that we were a part of it!!!
