HCA Florida Mercy Hospital announces the recent opening of a new freestanding ER as part of HCA Florida Healthcare’s continued expansion across the state.
HCA Florida Dadeland Emergency, an approximately 10,000-square-foot facility, located at 9100 SW 87 Ave., provides a full range of medical services for children and adults.
This new, state-of-the-art ER will be staffed with board-certified emergency medicine physicians and nurses, 24-hours a day, 365 days a year, just like an emergency room that is housed within the walls of a hospital. Physicians and colleagues will treat a range of general and specific conditions including infections, chest pain and injuries.
“As the community expands, the need for 24/7 emergency care close to where people live and work is paramount,” said David Donaldson, CEO of HCA Florida Mercy Hospital. “We are excited to establish a new healthcare location for all in need of emergency medical care.”
HCA Florida Dadeland Emergency will enable HCA Florida Healthcare to offer patient-centered, high-quality care to more Floridians and expand access to HCA Florida Healthcare’s advanced treatments, innovative technologies and experienced care teams.
Designed to meet the community’s growing health care needs, HCA Florida Dadeland Emergency will feature:
• Nine private treatment rooms;
• CT capabilities;
• Digital ultrasound;
• Digital diagnostic and portable X-rays;
• On-site laboratory, and
• Telemedicine technology with a specific focus on stroke care and behavioral health.
Patients visiting HCA Florida Dadeland Emergency can expect the same level of care as a hospital-based emergency department. Should the patient require in-patient treatment, HCA Florida Dadeland Emergency is part of a leading healthcare network across the state, including hospitals, physician practices and specialty care across the state to create a connected and collaborative healthcare experience for patients and their families.
“For decades, families have come to rely on the quality of care Mercy Hospital has provided. With many families moving further south, we can now expand access and bring that quality of care closer to home for patients in the Kendall area with our HCA Florida Dadeland Emergency facility,” Donaldson added. “While our approach to treatment has advanced, we continue to deliver collaborative, local care our communities expect and deserve.”
