Understanding your condition and feeling confident in your care is the first step toward healing, so we’ll take as long as you need to address your concerns. We’ll have a few questions of our own, too.
To start, we’ll ask for basic information like your medical history and the reason for your visit. Once we have this information and after we’ve taken your vital signs, we’ll decide on the best treatment plan.
At AdventHealth Lenexa City Center, we use a process known as triage to help prioritize care for our patients. This may mean that a later-arriving patient suffering from a stroke or heart attack is treated before someone in less critical condition. Whatever your condition, we always strive to keep emergency room wait times as short as possible so you can get the care you need.
You may want to consider keeping an information card on you in case of a medical emergency.
The card should include things like:
- Advance directives (like power of attorney and health care proxy)
- A list of your medications and drug allergies
- The name and number of your primary care doctor
- After Your ER Visit
-
Hopefully, your trip to the emergency room will be the only medical attention you'll need for a while. However, if your injury or condition requires further treatment, our care navigators will connect you with follow-up care where you live. As part of our mission to provide whole-person care, we're here to not only heal your body. We want to help ease your mind and minister to your spirit, as well.
