IS ER OPEN · Free community tool
Finding out if the ER is open shouldn’t take a search through Facebook.
Hospital closure updates were scattered around, and knowing where to look wasn’t obvious. I developed IS ER OPEN in 2025 to bring Northern BC emergency department information into one place.
The tool brings hospital status, locations, and contact details together in a simple view. It’s an independent community project, and the reason for building it was to make that information easier to find.
