Continuing Care
This reflects the number of individual persons assessed and approved waiting in an acute or sub-acute facility for continuing care placement including those waiting for long term care and supportive living level 3 and 4. The number is a snapshot at the end of the month. Alberta Health Services is working with Alberta Health & Wellness and Alberta Seniors and Community Support with a goal to providing Albertans with the right care in the right place.
The data regarding patients waiting in acute care for continuing care are currently compiled separately in the nine legacy health regions. The data reported here include adjustments received from legacy health regions that were made in light of calculation discrepancies uncovered during the compilation of this report. Adjustments for the former Northern Lights Region still need to be fully validated.
