The Tennity Emergency Department was designed to create a safe, healing environment for patients and families with private rooms. Eisenhower is currently planning further expansion with additional treatment areas. Named for Eisenhower supporters Marilyn and Bill Tennity, the 44,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art facility more than doubles the size of Eisenhower’s emergency department with a total of 42 treatment areas. In 2009, Eisenhower Medical Center unveiled its newly expanded Tennity Emergency Department. The Eisenhower Tennity Emergency Department has a collaborative and dedicated team of physicians, nurses, pharmacists, ED technicians, phlebotomists, X-ray technicians, social service workers, a concierge and 24-hour internal and external security About Eisenhower's Tennity Emergency Department

It may be best for a loved one who is waiting in the Emergency Department to update family and loved ones as appropriate. Due to privacy laws, we can only share limited information with callers. Communicating with the Emergency Department It is our goal to have each patient treated in a timely and caring manner while balancing the needs of the most critically ill and those with less critical conditions. Please know that we have one goal in mind - your well-being. For instance, specialized X-ray studies such as CT or MRI scans need to be “read” (interpreted) by a qualified specialist before appropriate treatment decisions can be made.
Emergency services personnel are able to assess the situation and, depending on the emergency, can often begin vital lifesaving services on the way to the hospital. As one recent national article stated, the most "saveable" person is one whose collapse is immediately reported to 911. While it may feel like a long wait for an ambulance, the wait is usually only minutes - far less than the amount of time to drive to the nearest hospital. In the event of a medical emergency, please dial 911. Family or loved ones may need to drop off the patient and follow the signs to the nearest parking approximately 100 yards away near the Salta Health Center building. Parking is limited near the emergency department entrance.
