The Fast Track Clinic at Fraser Health Authority provides care to individuals presenting to the emergency department with minor ailments such as bruises, allergic reactions, infections, and lacerations. There is a separate area for non-urgent patients with its own team of nurses, physicians and unit clerks. Eligible individuals are redirected from the main emergency area for registration, assessment and treatment as appropriate. The concept behind fast track clinics is becoming a growing trend as healthcare facilities explore ways to reduce wait times, especially in emergency departments.

"One of the most common complaints we ever received in the emergency department where I used to work was the long wait times. I think the idea of a Fast Track Clinic is a brilliant way to separate emergency patients from non-emergent so that each group of patients can be given quality care in a timely manner."

"I have never worked in a facility that had a fast track clinic, but I am very supportive of the concept. As a nurse, I can tell you it is frustrating to have to tell a patient who has been waiting for a long while that someone else has to be moved ahead of them. Most patients are understanding when an emergency occurs, but if we can provide care to non-emergency patients while assessing and caring for emergencies, I believe it will alleviate stress for patients and healthcare providers alike."
