Frequently Asked Questions

How often are Ontario ER wait times updated?

ER wait times are updated hourly from Ontario Health data sources. The data reflects the estimated time from triage assessment to seeing a physician.

What does the ER wait time mean?

The estimated wait time represents the time between being assessed by a triage nurse and seeing a doctor. It does not include time waiting in line for triage. Actual wait times may vary based on severity and volume.

Should I choose a hospital based on wait time alone?

No. If you have a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. Wait times change rapidly and some conditions require specialized care only available at certain hospitals.

What do the colour codes mean?

Green means under 1 hour wait, amber/yellow means 1 to 3 hours, and red means over 3 hours. These are estimates and actual experience may differ.
