When to go
Between 7 am and 10 am. The window was picked without seeing the day it was tested on, then scored against that day’s own average: it won on 100 % of the 6 days measured, with 6.0 fewer people in the waiting room on average (this ER’s own mean: 10.3).
Calmest day: Sunday (6.8 waiting). Busiest: Saturday (10.2). The gap is 3.4 people.
An average is not a forecast, and an emergency is not something you schedule. The number at the top of this page is still the only reading for today. Method and data: the hour test, the files.
