Need to go to emergency in the Vancouver Coastal Health Authority region but don't want to wait hours on end?

Health Authority CEO David Ostrow says there's a new website that tells patients how long the waits are at several ER's, "Patients can look at four of our downtown hospitals; Lions Gate, St. Paul's, Mount St. Joe's, VGH and Richmond Hospitals and we'll tell you. They are updated every five minutes and will tell patients how long they have to wait before they're seen."

Ostrow hopes to see the service expanded to include all hospitals.
