Starting a Conversation
Why do we talk about things like family doctor visits in relation to hospital care? The healthcare system is complex and inter-related. What’s happening in primary care, or even continuing care, can impact the patient experience in hospitals.
These interactive charts are updated quarterly (every three months), and include data on the 14 busiest hospitals as well as aggregate data on the remaining facilities across Alberta.
We display information by “Hospital Type” to ensure that when you compare hospitals you look at similar facilities with similar demands.
