If you have a concern about your pregnancy or think you may be in labour, call the obstetrical assessment telephone line at 905-472-7366, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You will be connected with one of our registered nurses who will ask you several questions about your specific situation and work with you to establish a care plan.
Virtual Tour

Triage
If you have concerns about your pregnancy, think you are in labour, or are going to be making your way to Markham Stouffville Hospital, please call our Triage Unit: 905-472-7366.
If you come for an assessment, please bring your health card to our Triage area on the 4th floor of building B. There you will be assessed by a nurse who will update your health care provider or the on call physician about your situation. Depending on your stage of labour, and your unique situation, you may be admitted or you may go home with a plan of care.
