What to expect at our ER
If you don’t arrive by ambulance, you will check in at the ER at a reception desk. When a patient arrives at our ER, they are immediately triaged for treatment. Triage is the process by which individuals are screened based on the severity of their condition. Our emergency team implements the triage process to streamline your care while minimizing wait times.
Please be prepared to provide your ID and any pertinent information about your medical history, such as medications you are taking, any allergies you may have, and a summary of your past illnesses, injuries and surgeries. Having this information readily available greatly assists our medical team in making informed decisions regarding your care.
Our goal in the ER is to provide prompt, quality medical attention for our patients, with continued emphasis on improving processes for a faster, more efficient emergency room experience.
How we reduce wait times
Individual wait times can vary widely in the ER, based on the number of beds available, the number of patients needing care and the severity of their conditions. Other factors like seasonal issues (such as flu) increase the number of patients seeking care. Patients with the most serious and life-threatening conditions will be seen first.
The overall amount of time you’ll spend in the ER depends on your health condition, tests you receive and how many patients are getting care. If your condition changes at any time, tell a nurse right away. We appreciate you choosing a Hillcrest ER and we strive to take the very best care of you during your visit.
