Heading to the ER? Let us know! Our quick On My Way check-in lets us know to expect you, which may save time. You’re not scheduling or reserving a time, as patients with the highest needs are seen first.
We’re Here When You Need Us Most
When you need immediate medical attention, our team is here for you with emergency care you and your family can count on 24/7.
Our 24-bed emergency center is staffed around the clock with emergency medicine physicians, specialty nurses, techs and paramedic partners, so you’ll always have a dedicated support team by your side when the unexpected happens.
We are recognized as a Level 1 Emergency Cardiac Care Center by the Georgia Department of Public Health, as well as designated as a Certified Advanced Primary Stroke Center from the Joint Commission. This means we can quickly assess and diagnose patients with related symptoms and provide immediate treatment to prevent further damage. Our rapid neurointerventional treatment is the only of its kind in Northwest Georgia, which means you can receive lifesaving treatment — close to home for complex stroke when every minute matters.
Emergency Care That Makes a Difference
- Air Ambulance Support

When every second counts, the quickest path to our emergency room is by helicopter. That’s why we have a state-of-the-art helipad to make landing safe and direct.

The Georgia Department of Public Health’s Office of Cardiac Care has awarded us the highest designation (Level 1) as an Emergency Cardiac Care Center.
Know When to Go to the Emergency Room
If you’re experiencing symptoms of a medical emergency, call 911 right away. Our emergency department offers 24-hour ER care for conditions like:
- Broken bones

- Gunshot or knife wounds
- Heart attack symptoms
- Poisoning
- Seizures or loss of consciousness
- Severe burns

Emergency Heart Care You Can Count On
Immediate response is crucial to surviving a heart attack, or a ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). That’s why our emergency care team is ready with lifesaving care even before you enter our facility. Through our STEMI Program, we partner with emergency medical services (EMS) for swift transport to our cardiac catheterization lab, staffed by emergency medicine physicians and cardiology specialists who have been preparing for your arrival.
Your Emergency Care Team
- Board-Certified Specialists
-
Our physicians have undergone extensive training to ensure they have the most advanced, thorough and robust exposure to all kinds of emergencies so they can respond to any unexpected event. To achieve board certification, physicians must complete advanced training beyond their medical school degree.
- Specially Trained Nurses
-
Emergency nurses need to be dependable, flexible and responsive, because no two emergencies are the same. Our nursing team is skilled in all kinds of emergency care to guide and comfort patients and their families.
A triage nurse is usually the first on our team to greet you and make sure severe emergencies are addressed quickly.
- Trauma Medical Director
-
Our trauma medical director oversees emergency care. This emergency chief is a trained physician with years of advanced practice in emergency medicine. Their unique clinical experiences and commitment to whole-person care help guide how we can better recognize and support your needs.
- Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
-
Our AdventHealth emergency medical services (EMS) teams serve all of Northwest Georgia.
As a 911 EMS provider, we provide primary coverage to these areas with stations located throughout our zones to provide maximum coverage and speedy response times.
Since the service opened in 1989, our EMS has been known for the quality pre-hospital care we provide. We were the first service in the state to utilize clot-busting medications in the field for people experiencing heart attacks. This project became the benchmark in care for many services.
In addition to the emergency coverage we provide, we are the EMS provider for many venues in all three counties that need EMTs or paramedics present at their events.
