THP Emergency Departments
and Community Care Options
Your Local Emergency Departments are Very Busy
We are seeing a significant increase in the number of patients visiting our Emergency Departments, which is resulting in longer than usual wait times. If you have a health concern that is not an emergency, there are a number of community options available to care for you.

Masking Practice Update
Masking Practice – Effective November 04, 2026
Starting November 04th, Trillium Health Partner’s (THP) is making an update to its masking practices. Masks are strongly recommended for all of Team THP in all patient care areas, especially when providing direct patient care. THP supports a mask-friendly environment, and visitors are encouraged to wear a mask, especially in patient care areas. Masks will continue to be available at all hospital entrances.
Visitors with respiratory symptoms or feeling unwell are encouraged to stay home until they recover. If they need to be present at the hospital, then a mask should be worn for the safety of others.
