Emergency Services
In a crisis situation, you need help fast. At Wadley Regional, we’ve combined a team of doctors, nurses and technicians who work hand-in-hand to ensure that patients in need of emergency care receive the best medical attention possible. Wadley’s Emergency Department is uniquely staffed by emergency medicine physicians and a dedicated staff of nursing personnel, all who are ACLS, TNCC, and ENPC certified.
Trauma Care - experienced Physicians and Nurses in Trauma Care. Up to date equipment including bedside Sonography which allows the Physician to take a 'quick look" and identify serious conditions quickly.
Primary Stroke Center – our highly trained staff is able to recognize the signs and symptoms of acute stroke. Established protocol that quickly determines if patient is in the three hour window to be able to receive the tPA.
Chest Pain Protocol - point of care testing assists with the rapid rule in or rule out of an acute heart attack. Once ruled in, patients are moved through the system quickly and to cath lab within 90 minute goal. If ruled out, the protocol allows that patient to return for outpatient stress test and avoid unnecessary admissions.
Fast Track - available from 9am-9pm, seven days a week, allows non-emergent patients to be seen faster, allows for better flow of emergent and critical patients through the main ED.
Wait times are consistently below the national average and the competition.
