When an emergency happens, you want medical care fast—and close to home. Our seven emergency rooms provide the advanced care you need, for everything from heart attack and stroke to broken bones and abdominal pain.

Our Approach to Emergency Care

Whether you visit the ER for chest pain, a severe headache that won’t go away, or because a loved one has a fever at 3 a.m., emergencies can be overwhelming.

We’re here to help. Our board-certified clinicians, specially trained nurses, technicians, and staff understand how you’re feeling and will expertly and compassionately treat you or your loved one as quickly as possible.

In our emergency rooms, you will be:

  • Greeted as you enter and quickly moved to registration and assessment by a nurse
  • Treated by providers who work side by side to make sure you receive the care you need
  • Aided by staff focused on your well-being, providing blankets and comfort items, and assisting with communications with your ER team as needed
  • Able to keep track of your test results and progress of your treatment through your MyChart app’s “My Hospital Stay” feature
  • Assisted by navigators who schedule any necessary follow-up appointments before you leave
