Emergency Services:
What to expect during your visit
What happens while I am being treated?
You will receive a preliminary evaluation by one of our emergency
department nurses. This will include questions regarding any current
medications you may be on, your medical history and any drug allergies
you may have.
Please be aware that we screen all patients for domestic
violence, smoking, alcohol and drug use. Referrals are provided
if you feel you need assistance with any of these problems.
You will then be seen by one of our board certified emergency
medicine physicians or a physician assistant. He or she will assess
your condition, discuss it with you, and make recommendations for
your best course of treatment. Occasionally, diagnostic tests may
be ordered or a specialist may be called in to participate in your
care.
