INTRODUCTION

We are one the busiest emergency departments in BC and in Canada, seeing about 67,000 patients per year at the RCH site. We have ~25 full-time specialty trained Emergency Physicians who spend 2/3 of their time at RCH and 1/3 of their time at Eagle Ridge Hospital (ERH). We see a mixture of adult and pediatric patients. The nursing staff are very experienced and are a valuable resource, if you listen to what they have to say. We have LPN's and orderlies who do all our casting and splinting who will be happy to teach you these skills, if you ask.
