Broward Health is bringing emergency care to Sunrise
Expanded Access to Emergency Care Services is Coming to Sunrise
When a medical emergency happens, having expert care close to home matters.

Our team of physicians, nurses and support staff is specially trained to care for patients facing complex and critical health conditions, delivering expert treatment when every moment counts.
Carefully Considered Noise Abatement

Quality Emergency Care
The Emergency Department will be staffed with physicians, nurses, and support staff who are specifically trained in treating the most complex and critical medical needs.
Rigorous Environmental Standards

We appreciate your interest in Broward Health's new freestanding emergency room in Sunrise, Florida.

Coming in summer 2026, this new 16,000-square-foot Freestanding Emergency Department will expand access to emergency care for residents of Sunrise and surrounding Broward County communities. Located at the northwest corner of West Oakland Park Boulevard and North Pine Island Road.
A free-standing emergency room gives patients convenient and quick access to expert ER care for those experiencing sudden illnesses or extreme medical issues such as uncontrolled bleeding, signs of stroke or heart attack, difficulty breathing, or loss of consciousness. In addition to these life-threatening conditions, or for issues that need the most immediate medical attention such as broken bones or severe pain, coming straight to an emergency room is your best choice. Using a free-standing ER means you or your loved one can come right to pediatric or adult emergency services – through separate entrances.
An urgent care center should be used for less extreme medical issues such as sprains or strains, minor infections, rashes, nose bleeds, minor cuts, recent fevers, or minor broken bones. Because ER care is triaged, meaning the most extreme medical conditions are treated first, your wait time and treatment for minor injuries or illnesses may be faster at an urgent care center.
Similar to when a patient arrives at one of our community hospitals but requires a higher level of care, this new freestanding Emergency Department would be capable of seamlessly transferring a patient to Broward Health Medical Center in Fort Lauderdale. This provides a continuum of high-quality care close to home.
