FAQ

Emergency Medicine is a medical specialty focused on the acute care of patients who require immediate medical attention due to injury, illness, or other critical conditions. Emergency Medicine physicians are trained to assess and manage a wide range of medical emergencies.

The ER is equipped to handle a broad spectrum of medical conditions, including injuries from accidents, heart attacks, strokes, respiratory distress, severe infections, fractures, and various other urgent health issues.

Patients in the ER are prioritized based on the severity of their condition. This is known as the triage process. Patients with life-threatening conditions (such as heart attacks or severe injuries) are seen first, followed by those with urgent but non-life-threatening conditions.

It's recommended to seek primary care or urgent care for non-emergency conditions. The ER should be reserved for true emergencies. Visiting the ER for non-urgent conditions can lead to longer wait times for patients in critical need of care.

If possible, bring your identification, insurance information, and a list of any medications you're currently taking. If you have a known medical condition or allergy, it's helpful to have that information available as well. However, in true emergencies, medical staff will focus on immediate care and collect additional information later.
