Round-the-Clock Care
Our doors are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our physicians and staff are specially trained in Emergency Medicine and treat more than 28,000 patients a year.

Priority of Care

The best time to prepare for a healthcare emergency is before it happens. Knowing where the nearest Emergency Department is located and what to expect may be helpful to you and your loved ones. Upon arriving, all patients are asked to indicate their arrival by signing in at the Emergency Department. Patients are initially evaluated by a nurse to determine the severity of the patients condition and priority is given to those people whose future health are immediately at risk.

What to Expect

Tests may be necessary to determine a patient's condition and an if specialty treatment is needed, one of our specialists on staff will be called. Please be prepared to provide important information about medical history, perscription medicine, allergies and a summary of past illnesses, injuries and surgeries.

Visiting Guidelines

Family members are allowed to visit patients whenever possible. Due to special circumstances, family members may be asked to remain in the waiting area and there may be a limit on the number of visitors. Our staff will make every effort to keep family members and friends informed of their patient's condition and treatment.
