Impact of COVID-19 on Canada’s health care systems

February 24, 2022 — Since March 2020, Canada’s health care systems have adapted and evolved at an unprecedented rate to respond to COVID-19. CIHI has now compiled health system data from the first 3 waves of the pandemic in Canada (March 2020 to June 2021), including new analyses on emergency departments, hospital services, physician services, long-term care, patient experience in hospitals and unintended consequences on harms caused by substance use, self-harm and accidental falls.
