Montreal ERs Overwhelmed by Heat and Staff Shortages | Montreal News
Description
Montreal’s ERs are in crisis, bursting at the seams with capacity up 200%—a problem that’s been brewing for years, now worsened by a brutal heatwave and staff shortages as workers take summer breaks. Patients face longer waits, staff are overworked, and the cycle shows no sign of breaking. Health officials urge everyone, especially vulnerable groups, to stay cool and seek help through Info-Santé or a pharmacist before heading to the ER—because this isn’t just a summer blip, it’s a systemic emergency demanding real, lasting solutions.
