What does this number mean?

An estimate for someone arriving now, not a guaranteed wait. It is not the total time at the hospital. Sicker patients are seen first. How Alberta Health Services defines it

The colours are set by us, not by Alberta Health Services. Under 2 hours is the Canadian goal for even the least urgent patients. cihi.ca

About Leduc Community Hospital

Leduc Community Hospital is a hospital in Leduc, Alberta. Emergency department: All ages. This service is open 24 hours a day.

Leduc Community Hospital is an Alberta Health Services hospital in the city of Leduc, about 20 kilometres south of Edmonton on Highway 2 and less than 10 kilometres from Edmonton International Airport. It opened on October 17, 1962 as the Leduc Municipal Hospital, and a multi-storey addition linked to the original building was completed in 1985. It provides acute, subacute and transition care.

Its 24-hour emergency department sees patients of all ages. Those who need to stay can be admitted to its inpatient units, which include a small special care area for patients needing closer monitoring. It also has a surgical department with three operating theatres, and a CT scanner paid for through a community fundraising campaign has been in use since 2015.

Outpatient services include endoscopy, general internal medicine and pre-admission clinics, and the Breathe Easy pulmonary rehabilitation program.

Leduc Community Hospital ER questions

Understanding the wait

What is the Leduc Community Hospital ER wait right now?

At 8 pm MDT, the estimated wait to see a physician was 4 hours 36 minutes (very long wait), according to Alberta Health Services. It changes as patients arrive, and the most urgent cases are always seen first.

Source: Alberta Health Services

How is the Leduc Community Hospital ER wait time calculated?

Alberta Health Services publishes it as "Estimated wait to see a physician": An estimate of how long it might take from an assessment by a triage nurse in the emergency department or urgent care to being seen by a physician. It does not represent the total time patients may spend at the hospital, and it does not apply to critically ill or injured patients, who are always seen quickly. We check it every 5 minutes. People with the most urgent needs are always seen first, so your own wait may be shorter or longer.

Is there an ER near Leduc Community Hospital with a shorter wait?

"Nearby ER wait times right now", at the end of this page, lists the nearest tracked sites with their current waits. These are the nearest facilities in our tracked dataset, not necessarily every local care option. A shorter estimate is not a recommendation to travel farther. If it is an emergency, call 911.

Call 911 for anything life-threatening. An emergency department is for serious problems that need a hospital. Urgent care treats problems that are not life-threatening but need care the same day. For minor problems, a family doctor, walk-in clinic or pharmacist may be quicker. If you are not sure where to go, call Health Link at 811 for advice from a nurse.
