Okotoks Health and Wellness Centre urgent care questions
Understanding the wait
What is the Okotoks Health and Wellness Centre urgent care wait right now?

Source: Alberta Health Services
How is the Okotoks Health and Wellness 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.
