Emergency care is the treatment of unexpected, severe medical injuries or infections. It is typically delivered in an emergency room or an ambulance. Our emergency medicine physicians stabilize your condition as quickly as possible to prepare you for the next step of care or discharge.
When you are experiencing a medical emergency, our hospital's emergency care team is here to provide the fast, comprehensive care you need.
The emergency room (ER) at HCA Florida UCF Lake Nona Hospital offers 24/7 emergency medical services to Southeast Orlando and the surrounding Orange and Osceola counties. Our team works together to make sure you receive the prompt care and attention you deserve.
If you or someone is experiencing a medical emergency, call 911.
