Emergency care services
Although there isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to the emergency care we provide, your visit might include one or more of the following services:
- Triage assessment — When you first arrive at our ER, you will be assessed by the triage nurse. Based on the severity of your condition, you may then be moved to an examination room.
- Pretreatment — Following your assessment and based on the severity of your condition, the triage nurse may order blood work or X-rays. You then may be admitted to the hospital.
- Provider exam — If needed, you may be evaluated and treated by an emergency medicine physician, a physician assistant (PA) or a nurse practitioner.
- Registration — Before you leave, we'll collect information for your medical record.
