The 30 Minute ER Pledge and what it means for you.
In a medical emergency, every minute matters. That’s why, at McKenzie-Willamette Medical Center, we work diligently to have you initially seen by a medical professional within 30 minutes of your arrival in the ER. We are proud to offer comprehensive emergency services and dedicated specialists to treat a variety of conditions.
The Emergency Department (ED) average wait time presented on this site is provided as an informational service to the public. It is approximate, and based on a rolling average that is updated four times an hour and does not represent the actual current activity in the ER waiting room.
When patients enter the Emergency Department at McKenzie-Willamette Medical Center, the time of their arrival will be noted. Our pledge is that a clinical professional (physician, physician assistant or nurse practitioner) will work diligently to have our patients initially seen within 30 minutes of their noted arrival.
If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911. If you need to go the emergency room, we’re ready for you 24/7.
