Emergency & Intensive Care Unit

Emergency Department

The Sutherland Hospital Emergency Department is open 24 hours per day, including public holidays.

The role of the Emergency Department is to care for emergencies. An emergency is when an illness or an injury is serious and requires urgent attention.

The order in which you will be seen in the Emergency Department is determined by the seriousness of your health problem, not the time of your arrival. Those people with the most serious and urgent conditions will always be seen first, and those with less serious conditions may have to wait until the doctor is free
