Highly skilled nurses staff Wellmont Nurse Connection phone lines 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Please call them to discuss any health issues you may be having so they can help you make the right treatment decision. If you do need emergency care, we’ll forward your symptoms and other pertinent information to the emergency room closest to your home. That way, our experienced physicians can be standing by, waiting to provide the specialized care you need as soon as you come through the door.
In the emergency room
Wellmont is committed to service excellence. We want your time in our emergency room to be as comfortable as possible, so we provide cable television in each patient room. Our emergency rooms also have kid-friendly areas with child-sized furniture, age-appropriate activities and colorful decorations to help your child feel more comfortable.
From emergency room to hospital bed
If your emergency requires admission to one of our hospitals, we make it as easy as possible with computerized bedside registration. That means you can go straight from the emergency department to your hospital bed. It’s all part of having the best hospitals in the region.
Peace of mind
When you need emergency care, finances are the last thing you should worry about. Wellmont hospitals offer financial counselors to help you make payment arrangements and apply for public assistance if necessary.
