LEAKED DASHBOARD SHOWS PATIENTS REMAINED STUCK IN EMERGENCY ROOMS FOR DAYS INTO FAMILY DAY LONG WEEKEND

Despite Years Of Chaos, Scott Moe & Sask. Party Have Done Nothing To Alleviate Pressure On Hospital Frontlines
REGINA – Patients spent several whole days stuck in Regina and Saskatoon’s overrun emergency departments over the Family Day long weekend, according to a newly leaked dashboard from the provincial health authority.

The tracker, a screengrab of which was leaked to the Official Opposition late Friday, reported patients waiting 103 hours — more than four full days — for care in the emergency department at Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon. The longest wait at St. Paul’s Hospital, also in Saskatoon, was 81 hours and at Regina General the wait was as long as 67 hours.

“Emergency care in Saskatchewan has been driven into the ground over 20 years of Scott Moe and the Sask. Party,” said Carla Beck, Saskatchewan NDP Leader. “Imagine waiting whole days in the emergency room for care. These are the government’s own tracking documents — there is no amount of spin they can do to get out of this.

“Healthcare has been falling apart for years and it’s in worse shape than ever. It’s time for big, bold change so we can get back to delivering healthcare the people of Saskatchewan can rely on.”
Similar data was provided to the Official Opposition in mid-December and frontline healthcare workers say the devastation on the frontlines in hospitals has not improved since.

“What will it take for these guys to do something — anything — to improve healthcare?” said Jacqueline Roy, Saskatchewan NDP Women’s Health Shadow Minister. “When we released emergency room wait times in December, they downplayed the concerns and gaslit the frontline workers speaking out and demanding better.

“My message to Moe is this — acknowledge the problem, apologize for failing and then get to work on making improvements. If not, step aside and let Carla Beck and her team step in because we will do what’s necessary to get healthcare out of last place.”

Carla Beck’s team is consulting broadly on improvements to Saskatchewan healthcare — people can get involved at YourCareYourSay.ca.
