Know Where to Go

Emergency departments treat the sickest patients first, so a minor problem may involve a long wait. Use the ER when the condition cannot safely wait. Routine care, prescription refills and mild illnesses are usually better handled elsewhere.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is an emergency room the same as urgent care?

No. Emergency rooms handle serious and potentially dangerous conditions. Urgent care is generally for problems that need quick treatment but are not life-threatening.

Can non-military patients always use a military ER?

Eligibility and billing rules can vary. In a life-threatening emergency, get immediate help first and address coverage questions afterward.

Are these emergency rooms open 24 hours?

Yes. The emergency departments listed on this page are currently described as operating around the clock.
