Received call asking if I refused treatment, I indicate, yes , but did not want to hear that I was there for 5 hours and that I would have to wait another hour before an bladder test need to be performed when there are two doctors attending to me, however, they were earlier shooting the sh*t, while I was still waiting to see-you the same two doctors.

Caller: (204) 788-8588

I’ve blocked it and still get repeated calls. Says it’s my area code. I have never answered it and from the look of the complaint comments above, I sure won’t. So glad I had call display.

This number has called me several times. I have never been to the hospital nor have I been out if the state I live in. How can we stop these calls. I blocked them and they still call at all hours. I was woke up at midnight from this number. Most annoying person on earth. STOP CALLING ME!

Some lady named Joan just called me after I came back from Victoria Urgent care to ask about my experience. When I said I was very unhappy there she just hang up on me....rude!

A man called and asked for my daughter By her first name. When I asked who was Calling or what this was about he hung upOn me. I found it very rude! And I'm not gonnaGive some strange man any info on my daughter

Yes, used for all Winnipeg, and Brandon hospitals a WRHA number with many uses. As if someone calls from a hospital, you leave emerg, with out being seen, they call, but can only talk to the patient as its the law of the Personal health Information act. (PHIA). Some people don't want others to know there in emerge or urgent Care for personal reasons, same reason a message can't be left. Also If you are a patient, use one of the emerg. phones to call someone this # will also appear, but can not be called back.

the same happened here also

Yes and it's a huge fine if they break this rule. Up to 50,000

by law... hospitals cannot identify themselves to anyone but the person... as PHIA protects pretty much ALL medical information, no matter how menial it may seem. Very happy about this myself...

and just to add to my previous post... the number specifically belongs to a reporting department... they generally call if you leave emergency dept without being seen or without completing your care.
