Emergency Department

In-depth, authoritative medical knowledge is only one way in which Griffin's Emergency Department leads the way in providing critical care. Another important component is quick, efficient attention to emergencies, resulting in the shortest possible waiting time for patients and their families.

Griffin's Emergency Department is staffed by board-certified emergency physicians, supported by physician assistants. Some of the physicians are double-certified in another specialty and are advanced cardiac care life support instructors. There are about 38,000 patient visits to Griffin's Emergency Services Department annually.

There are two tracks in the department. One is for major emergencies, including complex medical cases. The other is for minor illnesses or injuries, for which our turn-around time goal (time from arrival to departure) is one hour.
