Open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, our Emergency Department gives patients and families what they need most in an emergency -peace of mind.

Who Comes to the Emergency Department?
The Emergency Department sees a variety of patients including a large number of people with heart problems, people with serious injuries resulting from accidents and even people with colds and coughs. Heart patients receive an even greater level of care because a new monitoring system allows the staff to track the patient's condition no matter where they've been sent, whether it's for an X-ray, lab work or for additional testing in other parts of the hospital.

Our Emergency Department also has a comprehensive Worker's Compensation package that allows employers to have their injured or ill workers seen quickly and efficiently with the least amount of hassle and paperwork.

Ultimately, however, our staff urges you to remember that when there is an emergency, time is of the essence. Getting to the closest emergency room could save your life. Please don't wait - get to an ER quickly.
