While you can get urgent help at CHEO any day of the year, we do have a partial slowdown for a few days over the holiday season. Our Emergency Department and all urgent and essential services are open, but for a few days each December/January, non-urgent clinic appointments and elective surgeries are deferred and our administrative services are closed. This cost-containment strategy allows us to better serve you throughout the year.

Are your child's prescriptions running low? Please plan ahead and get them refilled before CHEO’s clinics close for our partial slowdown.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during this period.

For urgent matters, please call the main switchboard (613-737-7600) and your inquiry will be directed accordingly.
