Emergency Services

25,000 emergencies

That’s how many friends, family and neighbors we care for each year in our Emergency Services Department.

All day every day including weekends and holidays, physicians, nurses and other medical professionals who specialize in emergency medicine are here for you.

Riverview’s emergency entrance is located on the west side of the hospital near 3rd Street and Riverview Expressway. One side of the ambulance garage is available to drop off patients who need assistance into the emergency department. Patients who are able can walk in and register at the Emergency reception desk.

Physicians who are board-certified and residency-trained in emergency medicine are on duty at all times to provide and coordinate emergency care. Specialty consultation is also available within 30 minutes by other members of the Riverview Hospital Medical Staff, including family physicians and internists, surgeons, orthopedists, obstetrics/gynecologists, pediatricians, ophthalmologists, ENTs and anesthesiologists.
