Emergency Care

Open 24 hours and 365 day a year.Our Emergency Care Center is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and staffed with specially trained physicians, nurses, technicians, and other licensed healthcare professionals to address your urgent and life-threatening medical concerns.

Patients are encouraged to always seek immediate help if experiencing severe pain, breathing difficulties, severe allergic reactions, or any other emergent concerns.

  • We use our best efforts to treat all major (life threatening) emergencies immediately and to treat patients in order of their severity of illness.
  • Our team will examine your condition and assess your needs to identify a treatment plan that’s right for you.
  • If the level of care needed is beyond our medical capabilities, we will stabilize the patient and coordinate their transport to a facility better suited to meet their particular needs.
  • We will not deny anyone access to medical care.
