Emergency & Trauma Care When You Need It Most

The goal of the Memorial Regional Health Emergency Department, located at The Memorial Hospital at Craig, is to provide quality, compassionate care in even the most stressful of situations. Our Emergency Department is staffed by highly skilled physicians and nurses 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to assist you and your family if an emergency occurs.

Trauma care is something that you hope you never need, but if you or a loved one falls victim to a serious injury, it’s comforting to know that The Memorial Hospital is standing by with the expertise and equipment to ensure rapid care. From the trauma site to stabilization, our Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and emergency personnel respond as a team.

Our State designation as a Level IV Trauma Center illustrates our commitment to your care, especially when seconds count. Learn more about our EMS department here, and feel free to contact us if you require more information about our emergency and trauma services.

The Triage Process At Memorial Regional Health

How quickly you are seen by a physician depends on the triage process. When arriving at the Emergency Department, triage staff will complete a basic assessment of symptoms and determine the severity of illness.

A patient’s order of treatment in the Emergency Department is based on the severity of the illness, not on a first-come, first-served basis.

Patients identified by our triage staff as having life-threatening conditions are taken directly into our Emergency Department for evaluation and treatment. Therefore, patients with illnesses or injuries identified as not life-threatening may experience a longer waiting time while more serious cases are treated. We ask for your patience if or when this occurs.

Children And Emergencies

Children have unique medical problems and may display different symptoms than adults. Symptoms that are serious for a child may not be as serious for an adult. Always seek immediate medical attention if you think your child is having a medical emergency.
