Nurse says she looked at woman ‘3 to 5 seconds,’ staff overwhelmed before sepsis death at Ontario hospital

April 10, 2026

A triage nurse who assessed Heather Winterstein hours before she died of sepsis in the St. Catharines, Ont., hospital says she had little time with the 24-year-old, telling a coroner’s inquest the emergency department staff were overwhelmingly busy. "Nurses are burned out. Nurses are exhausted,” Andrea Demery said several days into the inquiry.
