Our approach
A specially-trained nurse will check your vital signs, evaluate your condition and ask about your health history. This process is called “triage,” a French word meaning “to sort by priority.” It ensures that the most seriously ill and injured patients are seen first. This means that even though you may have arrived before another patient, another patient may be seen first if their condition is worse.
Our providers are experts in evaluating patients and deciding quickly on the right course of treatment. Our network of hospitals also gives patients access to a wide range of specialized care if necessary.
