If your emergency or condition requires swift transport to a larger medical facility, Avera’s emergency services are supported by Careflight. Throughout your flight, your certified Careflight medical crew continues communication with telemedicine providers, specialty physicians and trauma team members. It's like being in the trauma center while in the air.
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 bay. Those not arriving by ambulance may follow the signage and look for the designated entrance on the east side of the hospital.
Our team will ensure you’re stabilized and cared for in a private area to further preserve your dignity. This flow of patient rooms also allows staff efficiency in serving patients and in team communication.
Same-day lab results and other diagnostic tests are available. Right inside our facility, you have access to a wide range of laboratory services that contribute to accurate diagnoses of medical conditions. Expert specialists conduct safe and reliable lab testing, helping you and your provider get the results you need to start an effective and personalized treatment plan.
