Eastern Health is that warning emergency rooms at the Health Sciences Centre and St. Clare’s Mercy Hospital in St.

John’s are experiencing unprecedented pressures resulting in long wait times for patients.

Patients with non-life-threatening medical needs are advised to seriously consider if they need to go to an emergency room and should only proceed to an emergency room after all other options have been considered. Alternate options for non-urgent care include:calling the 811 NL HealthLine for health advice or if experiencing a mental health crisis. The HealthLine also has a nurse practitioner virtual care service that can prevent unnecessary emergency room visits for non-emergent issues.
