Airdrie Community Health Centre urgent care questions

Understanding the wait

What is the Airdrie Community Health Centre urgent care wait right now?

At 7:20 pm MDT, the estimated wait to see a physician was 2 hours 7 minutes (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 Airdrie Community Health Centre urgent care 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.
