Emergency Services and Trauma Department

If you are experiencing an emergency, call 911 immediately.

A trip to the ER can be unsettling. Rest assured that you’re in the hands of an advanced trauma life support (ATLS) team. We’re open 24/7 with short wait times.

Our capable team includes trauma-trained nurses and board-certified physicians. We’re close by to stitch a wound, diagnose pain, secure an injury, or stabilize a critical condition. With 24/7 access to lab services and an on-site pharmacy, we can get the tests and medications you need right away.

Follow-up care is an important part of recovery. We’re part of a large and medically skilled community connected to dozens of specialists and rehabilitation professionals. We’ll fast-track your recovery program and help align your post ER stay with the professionals you’ll need to keep healing.

We hope you are never in need of emergency care, but we want you to know that we are here for you and those you love if you are met with an unexpected medical challenge.
