Our services
With many new features, Saideep hospital has the enhanced capabilities to reduce wait times of patients and treating them quickly and effectively. If one arrives with a minor injury or illness, one will be directed to the express care area; if suffering from a more complex and acute condition, one will be moved to the main treatment area or trauma area.
Minor injuries and illnesses
Express care area at Saideep Hospital is a dedicated area of the Emergency Department for people with less serious injuries and illnesses. This separate area and process ensure treatment for minor injuries and illnesses will not be delayed if a patient with a very complex or serious condition comes in. This area is for less acute problems, such as:
- Cold symptoms/congestion
- Headaches
- Dental pain
- Earaches
- Pink eye
- Sore throats
- Fevers
- Broken bones
- Sprains and bruises
- Asthma attacks
Stroke
Receiving expert treatment for strokes can mean the difference between life and death. All stroke patients are seen in a timely manner to ensure their needs are addressed and care is received accordingly. As a designated Stroke Center, the most advanced training, personnel, and equipment are offered to provide state-of-the-art care to patients suffering from ischemic strokes (the most common type) and hemorrhagic strokes.
Heart attack
Saideep Hospital is one of the few hospitals in the area that can perform emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) – a technique acknowledged as the optimal way to treat heart attacks as they occur. We have the latest technology and the necessary personnel 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to immediately open blocked heart arteries as necessary. Saideep Hospital also uses sophisticated technology that allows pre-hospital medical care providers to communicate a heart attack patient’s condition quickly to physicians in the Emergency Department, speeding up the process of beginning critical, lifesaving care. This system lets healthcare workers in the field securely transmit information about the patient’s initial electrocardiography (ECG) exam so the team can start preparing for treatment.
Trauma
Saideep hospital provides expert care to patients with traumatic injuries that could possibly result in the loss of a limb or life. Examples include blunt trauma, serious motor vehicle accidents, falls, etc. Our Emergency Department features a designated trauma room with the ability to treat four patients simultaneously. As a Level II Trauma Center, we have physician specialists including neurosurgeons, pulmonologists, intensivists, trauma surgeons, anesthesiologists and orthopedicians on call 24 hours a day to provide immediate state-of-the-art care to all trauma patients.
Specialized care for behavioral health, bariatric and OB/GYN patients
Careful evaluation and dedicated, specialized treatment areas are available for patients with behavioral health, bariatric and OB/GYN emergencies. Our specially designed rooms for patients with obstetrical and gynecological concerns and postpartum needs offer all the necessary equipment and diagnostic services for obstetric and gynecologic care — including ultrasound — all in one room, so patients don’t need to be moved from space to space. Specially designed rooms with appropriate equipment and supplies help ensure bariatric patients receive the care they need and are treated with the dignity they deserve. We also offer 24-hour evaluation and specialized treatment for individuals with psychiatric emergencies.
The Pediatric Emergency Unit
Our dedicated, child-friendly area of the Emergency Department has private treatment rooms and waiting areas to ensure comfort and privacy during our littlest patients’ stays. All of the pediatric unit’s physicians and staff are certified in providing pediatric life support. Since most pediatric emergencies fall into the “minor” category, young patients often receive care in the Emergency Department’s express care area. Child-size devices are available there for pulse, blood pressure and other exams.
However, pediatric emergencies do happen, and they can be scary for children and parents. We make sure to explain everything ahead of time to help keep parents informed and reduce anxiety – and when parents feel less stressed, so does their child. Seamless transfer to Saideep Hospital is available for children who require more advanced care for a very serious, complex illness or injury.
Specialized, on-site radiology
We provide a dedicated radiology area featuring X-ray and 64 slice, low dose CT scan and 1.5 T MRI capabilities. With on-site radiology, the emergency medicine physician will have real-time, definitive information to help guide the treatment plan. Other physicians affiliated with Saideep Health Care also have access to the scans for follow-up care.
