Emergency Services

When a medical emergency strikes, you’re in good hands with the ER physicians at St. Luke's Warren. Our highly trained emergency room doctors are ranked among the top 3 percent in the nation in terms of patient satisfaction and you have access to them around the clock.

What to bring to the ER

It's very important to let the ER doctors know what drugs you have been prescribed as well as any over-the-counter medications you take on a regular basis. Herbs, vitamins, aspirins and prescription medications interact in ways that often cause dramatic reactions. In order to treat you most effectively, your doctors will need to know what you take routinely as well as what you have taken recently. Try to keep an updated list on hand for emergencies.

Here’s what you can expect from St. Luke's Warren Hospital’s ER

  • Immediate assessment of your condition by a registered nurse. Severely ill or injured patients move to the head of the line.
  • Greatly reduced waiting times. Our average time from assessment to evaluation by a physician is just 20 minutes. Patients who are able to return home spend, on average, under two hours in the ER; patients who must be admitted are in their rooms in about four hours.
