Quality and Efficient Care

Tri-City Medical Center Emergency Services treats all injuries and illnesses and is staffed by specially trained doctors and nurses. When you arrive, a triage nurse will evaluate your condition to determine its severity. All patients are treated based on the severity of their illness or injury. Although we strive to provide prompt service, if your condition isn't life threatening, you may need to wait. Please let the nurse know if your condition worsens while you're waiting.
