Emergency Department
When you need medical attention, you should spend your time in the emergency room, not the waiting room.
That's why Martha Jefferson Hospital's award-winning Emergency Department has engineered its processes to bring you out of the waiting room and into the treatment area, where you will receive comprehensive care from our experienced emergency room staff within about 15 minutes.
And with two locations for emergency care, receiving the comprehensive care you've come to expect is convenient as well.
How can we provide fast service without sacrificing quality care? Learn more about how our decreased wait times improve the level of care we provide.

Remember, in a life-threatening emergency, go to the nearest emergency department or call 9-1-1.
