Opposition critical of wait times at Victoria Hospital
Emergency room wait times at Victoria Hospital in Prince Albert received some attention in Regina Monday afternoon.
The issue was raised during Question Period at the Saskatchewan Legislature.
“The most recent figures for Prince Albert’s emergency room show that urgent patients are waiting up to an hour and 25 minutes to see a doctor — urgent patients. According to national standards, a doctor’s supposed to see urgent patients within at least 30 minutes,” said NDP health critic Danielle Chartier.
Chartier demanded to know what the government planned to do about it.
