Emergency Department Update

| News

The emergency departments across all regional hospitals are currently facing a surge in patient volumes.

At Grace Cottage Hospital Emergency Department, we conduct a thorough Medical Screening Exam for all patients. Our priority is to promptly attend to individuals based on the urgency of their condition. Patients with severe medical issues such as trauma, stroke, or heart attack will receive immediate attention.

For those seeking less urgent or non-emergency care, please be aware that there might be a longer wait time than usual. We welcome everyone and strive to provide the best possible experience for your healthcare needs.

If you are uncertain about whether your situation qualifies as a medical emergency, our team is available to assess you in-person 24/7.

In the case of a life-threatening medical emergency, please dial 911.
