Avera’s emergency services are supported by telemedicine – giving you and your emergency care team immediate access to specialized personnel via two-way video, if needed for your care. These specialists act as extra eyes who assist your hands-on experts as they work swiftly to care for or stabilize you.
Our emergency department was designed with our patients in mind. If you arrive by ambulance, you are unloaded in our ambulance garage before entering the facility. This prevents exposure to the weather and helps protect your privacy.
Our team will ensure you’re stabilized and cared for in a private room to further preserve your dignity. This flow of patient rooms also allows staff efficiency in serving patients and in team communication.
Medical staff may order lab work for patients visiting our emergency room. Expert specialists conduct safe and reliable lab tasting right in our facility – helping you and your provider get the results you need to start an effective and personalized treatment plan.
Imaging technology including CT scans and X-rays are available for clinical staff to order around the clock for patients visiting the emergency rooms. Experts conduct comfortable and quick imaging, so you receive accurate diagnosis which will determine the right treatment for your health.
