Knowing Where to Seek Care
Broward Health Sunrise ER provides the same high-quality emergency care as a hospital-based ER in a convenient community setting. Patients can be evaluated, treated and stabilized, with seamless transfer to a Broward Health hospital when additional or specialized care is required.
Patients experiencing serious or potentially life-threatening conditions should seek care at a hospital-based ER where teams have access to advanced imaging, comprehensive laboratory testing and the resources necessary to evaluate and treat complex emergencies. Hospital-based ERs are located on a hospital campus, providing direct access to inpatient and specialty services when needed.
Primary care is best for routine healthcare needs, preventive services and ongoing management of chronic conditions while urgent care centers treat minor injuries and non-life-threatening illnesses that require prompt attention but do not need advanced emergency services.
