Today, we proudly celebrated the ribbon cutting for Doctors Hospital Evans Emergency — our new, state-of-the-art freestanding ER.
This milestone brings us one step closer to expanding access to high-quality, 24/7 emergency care in the heart of Evans. The anticipated opening date for the facility is Tuesday, December 2.
As a reminder, an Emergency Room is different from an urgent care.
A freestanding ER provides the same level of care, expertise, and advanced technology as a hospital-based Emergency Department — including CT and X-ray imaging, on-site lab services, emergency medications, and treatment from board-certified emergency medicine physicians 24/7.
It is equipped to handle serious or life-threatening conditions, including chest pain, stroke symptoms, major injuries, difficulty breathing, broken bones, severe abdominal pain, and more.
Urgent care centers, by comparison, are designed for minor, non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries and are not equipped to manage higher-acuity emergencies.
Here are a few photos from today’s ceremony — more will be shared in the coming days.
Thank you to our local officials, community partners, physicians, nurses, and colleagues who joined us to celebrate this exciting moment for the CSRA.
