About

From the moment you enter our Emergency Department, our dedicated staff of physicians, experienced registered nurses and medical professionals make it their mission to provide compassionate care to every patient, every time.

We are here 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Our physicians and nurses are specially trained and certified in Advanced Cardiac Life Support, Basic Life Support, Pediatric Advanced Life Support, and Trauma Nursing Core Course.

Washington State designates our Emergency Department as:
• Level IV Trauma Center
• Level II Cardiac Center
• Level III Stroke Center

How We Care for You

We provide emergency medical care to those who come to the hospital on their own or by ambulance.

When a patient suffers a severe injury, our trauma team stabilizes their condition and immediately arranges transport to a trauma center such as Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. When this is necessary, we deploy Airlift Northwest or Lifeflight to transfer patients.
