The all new ER at LVH–Hazleton offers:
Private treatment rooms with glass enclosures

Board-certified emergency medicine providers
The physicians at LVH–Hazleton ER are board certified in emergency medicine. That means you’ll be treated by experts when you need it most.
Advanced imaging technology
We have the latest technology to ensure the highest level of care, including a state-of-the-art 128-slice computed tomography (CT) scanner located in emergency room for highly accurate diagnoses.
Care that starts at the front door
The updated facility is nearly double the size and features a quicker, easier check-in process. To decrease wait times, a nurse will see you, take vital signs, and determine next steps in care. Patients who are experiencing life-threatening conditions are always given priority, and now people with minor injuries and illnesses can be super-tracked and rapidly triaged.
Super-track process for minor conditions
People with minor illnesses or injuries can be “super-tracked” to receive care quickly. Four super-track beds are available to treat people with non-emergency conditions.
Trauma care
We now have a dedicated trauma room in our Level IV trauma center. It’s the only Level IV trauma center in lower Luzerne County and is accredited by the Pennsylvania Trauma Systems Foundation. We also work closely with the Level I trauma center at LVH–Cedar Crest through our telehealth program.
Cardiac care
We partner with LVHN’s other hospital locations in the award-winning MI Alert Program. If you have a heart attack, this program enables us to quickly identify the condition and transfer you to a partner facility with the resources to provide the best in treatment in 90 minutes or less.
Stroke care
We are a Primary Stroke Center accredited by the Healthcare Facilities Accreditation Program (HFAP). Our Stroke-Alert Program ensures that potential stroke patients are quickly assessed and undergo a CT scan in 20 minutes or less. Patients needing additional medical attention are transferred to a larger LVHN facility.
MedEvac
Most people who visit our ER do not need to be transported by helicopter. But for those who do, LVHN-Medevac is always close by, with a specially educated crew available 24/7 to continue medical care during transport.
