The Emergency Room at Logan Medical Center is unique among rural hospitals in that it is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with a physician trained in emergency medicine. The nursing staff is trained in ACLS (Advanced Cardiac Life Support & TNCC (Trauma Nursing Core Course), and the emergency department is supported by the ancillary departments (radiology, lab and pharmacy) 24 hours a day.

Over 8,000 emergencies a year are treated at Logan Medical Center’s emergency department. The emergency team is comprised of doctors, nurses, radiology and lab techs, all of whom know how critical quick diagnosis and treatment are to the full recovery of the patient -–no matter what the illness or injury.

In early 2005, Logan Medical Center’s emergency department underwent renovations to give patients more privacy and to construct an isolation room to help prepare for the possibility of bio-terrorism acts. These renovations were made possible through a grant provided by the Oklahoma State Department of Health.

The Emergency Room is located at the rear (South) entrance of the hospital. Please call 911 for emergencies or 282-6700 for questions.
