What to Expect in our Emergency Room
As a patient, you will be cared for by staff trained to respond to medical emergencies. We understand a visit to the ER can be a very stressful time; therefore, you should expect us to communicate with you and guide you through your situation. You should always ask questions if you do not understand.
Quality Emergency Care, Close to Home
The Emergency Room at Saline Memorial Hospital is a Level III trauma center, which means it has demonstrated the ability to provide advanced trauma life support (ATLS) prior to the transfer of patients to a higher-level trauma center.
Saline Memorial is also a designated stroke center, utilizing telemedicine through UAMS Institute for Digital Health & Innovation's Stroke Program. This program allows us to link ischemic stroke patients with a vascular neurologist within minutes, via live, two-way video, available 24-hours a day. The program helps ensure timely treatment of stroke patients.
Remember: Call 9-1-1
If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, calling 9-1-1 is almost always the fastest way to get lifesaving treatment. EMS staff are trained to revive someone whose heart has stopped. It is best to call EMS for rapid transport to the emergency room.
