We have been and will continue to be proactively engaged in the safe management of COVID-19. As part of our larger network, HCA Healthcare, we have put in place infection prevention protocols and safety measures that help protect our patients and colleagues at all of our facilities.

At the ER of Shawnee, we understand your emergency is of the utmost importance. From sprains and broken bones to middle-of-the-night fevers and allergic reactions, our emergency room (ER) is here to help.

As one of our 10 pediatric-friendly ERs in the HCA Midwest Health Network, the ER of Shawnee has emergency specialists ready to provide expert care for your little one 24/7. We're experienced in quickly diagnosing and providing effective treatment for a wide range of conditions and injuries affecting children.

There are many options for healthcare including emergency services, urgent care or specialists. Sometimes a helping hand provides good advice. Get advice you can trust directly from experienced, licensed nurses. Call (844) 706-8773 anytime, day or night for answers, advice and peace of mind.

For some patients, our emergency physicians may recommend a follow-up visit with a specialist after their ER visit. Receiving the proper care after an emergency medical situation is important to monitor your health and facilitate your recovery. If your doctor recommends a follow-up, you may receive a call from a member of our staff to help find a doctor near you and schedule an appointment.

HCA Midwest Health also participates in the CareAssure program, a part of our Care Connect initiative. The goal of this program is to keep our patients healthy by following up with them about test results that may indicate risk for a future health problem. We want to connect you with the treatment you need, before a medical emergency occurs.
