Atención de emergencia
La atención de emergencia es el tratamiento de afecciones médicas de emergencia. Generalmente se proporciona en una sala de emergencias, pero también puede hacer referencia al tratamiento que se brinda en una ambulancia. Los médicos especialistas en medicina de emergencia pueden tratar a pacientes con lesiones o infecciones, además de afecciones potencialmente mortales.

Nuestros servicios de atención de emergencia
Nuestro objetivo es trabajar continuamente para mejorar el tratamiento que usted recibe. Utilizamos tecnología innovadora para brindarte un atención personalizado.
Care Path services
To better serve you and your family, we have a designated Care Path area for less severe medical emergencies. Care Path enables us to provide treatment even faster without compromising the quality of care.
Heart attack treatment
If you've experienced a heart attack, we offer quick diagnosis and a range of treatment options, including a coronary balloon angioplasty with stenting and cardiac rehabilitation. Our robust target temperature management program includes policies, procedures and protocols for post-cardiac arrest treatment. We also maintain a "no diversion policy" so you can receive the care you need when you need it most.
Additionally, we have been recognized by the American College of Cardiology as an Accredited Chest Pain Center with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and resuscitation.
Stroke intervention
A stroke is a severe medical emergency requiring prompt treatment to address decreased blood flow to or within the brain. The sooner treatment is administered, the better the outcome.
Our ER is recognized by Det Norske Veritas (DNV) as a Comprehensive Stroke Center, and our emergency care team has extensive experience identifying stroke symptoms. We provide quick diagnoses and a wide range of interventional stroke services, including mechanical thrombectomy.
Freestanding emergency departments
In addition to the emergency department at our hospital, we also have three freestanding emergency care locations throughout the community. Our freestanding emergency clinics offer all the same services you would receive in our hospital's emergency department. If continued care is needed, we will provide transportation to our hospital.
