One size fits all doesn't work in emergency care, especially when it comes to kids. They need oxygen masks and other equipment sized just for them. They also need staff who are expert in the right dose of medication, as well as in the right words to coax a smile.
Since January 1, 2000, Edward's Kids' ER has treated nearly 150,000 patients, put in more than 50,000 stitches, consistently ranks in the top 2 percent of the country in patient satisfaction and is the only Kids' ER in the region with all board certified pediatric emergency physicians. Read more about the Kids' ER team and the 10-year anniversary.

Shorter wait times, more efficiency With its own exclusive CT scanner, patients don't have to wait for openings in the CT scanners in the main radiology department. The latest information systems, lab and radiology technologies help ensure that turnaround times overall are significantly better than the national average. In most cases our young patients and their families are on their way home in less than an hour.
Kid-friendly The doctors and nurses who provide our emergency care for kids have gone through special training in use of equipment and techniques for diagnosing and treating children. Special bandages that take the place of stitches are just one of the kid-friendly treatments available. The rooms are private and the oceanic décor helps ease the fears of our young patients. Wave-like curves are built into the ceiling and walls, while turtles, crabs and other sea creatures pave the way down halls.
