Like many other hospitals and healthcare organizations across Ontario, Michael Garron Hospital (MGH) is experiencing a very high demand for urgent, acute health services resulting in an increase in hospital admissions and longer than usual wait times for patients.
Much of the demand we are seeing is from children who are sick with cold, flu and other respiratory viruses. Combined with the current nation-wide shortage of over-the-counter liquid acetaminophen (Tylenol) and ibuprofen (Advil) for children, this is creating an especially challenging respiratory season for families.
To help keep your family safe and healthy this fall and winter, we’ve put together the following tips that will help protect your loved ones and, in the event that you need care, ensure you get it in the right place at the right time.
We appreciate your kindness and patience as our team does their best to provide urgent care for patients as safely and quickly as possible.
