Three Emergency Room Options for You and Your Family
17 de febrero de 2023
1. Renown Regional Emergency Room
The emergency room at Renown Regional Medical Center is the only Level II Trauma Center between Sacramento and Salt Lake City, treating more than 80,000 ER and trauma patients annually.
Services Offered: This location offers immediate emergency care covered by general surgeons and coverage by the specialties of orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery, anesthesiology, emergency medicine, radiology and critical care. In addition, tertiary care needs include cardiac surgery, hemodialysis and microvascular surgery. (Patients may be referred to a Level I Trauma Center.)
2. Renown South Meadows Emergency Room
South Reno is expanding, and so is Renown South Meadows ER!
Exciting transformations are happening across this campus, including the new 121,000-square-foot specialty care center and upgrades to the existing medical center—expanding care to our patients.
Added benefits to the more intimate setting at South Meadows:
- Smaller ER also means more personal experience. The team traditionally has more time to spend with each patient at the bedside.
- A smaller campus means convenient parking, as the ER is just outside the front entrance; however, patients are reminded to follow marked road signs when approaching the campus during construction.
- Most patients arrive by private vehicle versus an ambulance, so we are very accustomed to thinking quickly on our feet.
Benefits to new construction:
- A new Cath lab will allow us to treat patients experiencing a heart attack and needing immediate intervention to open vessels in their hearts.
- Additional lab and imaging capabilities for our patients
Services Offered: This location offers immediate emergency care staffed with board-certified emergency physicians. Patients can expect one-on-one interactions with trusted providers and shorter wait times.
All emergency room services are open during construction, and patients are reminded to follow marked road signs when approaching the campus.
3. Sala de emergencias de Renown Children’s Hospital
This location offers immediate emergency care, with pediatric specialists always on staff. In addition, the Children's ER lobby is ideal for our littlest patients, with a child-friendly atmosphere and vibrant colors to help decrease the anxiety accompanying emergencies.
Medical equipment is sized just for kids, and we offer a distraction machine, games and movies to help children cope with what can be a traumatic experience, like getting an IV. In addition, we have Child Life Specialists available to provide emotional support to both children and their families.
