In Minnesota, the full range of pediatric medical and surgical subspecialty hospital care is available within Mayo Eugenia Litta Children's Hospital. Depending upon the pediatric patient's condition and need for medical or surgical subspecialty care in a hospital setting, pediatric patients who are evaluated in the Arizona and Florida emergency departments may be transferred to one of the children's hospitals in that area for treatment. The departments of Emergency Medicine at Arizona, Florida and Minnesota all serve both adult and pediatric patients. In addition to treating more common urgent or emergent medical conditions, the Department of Emergency Medicine in Rochester, Minnesota, provides Level 1 Trauma services, caring for patients with extremely severe injuries. People with chronic- or long-standing health conditions should understand that a visit to a Mayo Clinic emergency department may not result in an appointment in another Mayo Clinic specialty department or division. Patients should refer to their discharge instructions. Often, the emergency medicine physician will recommend that patients see their primary care providers in follow-up. When patients are discharged from the emergency department, they are given recommendations for any follow-up care that may be needed. If needed, Mayo Clinic physicians from other medical and surgical specialties are on call to aid in determining a plan of care for the patient while the patient is in the emergency room. The Department of Emergency Medicine at each Mayo Clinic site is part of Mayo Clinic's integrated group practice of health care providers. Staff in the Department of Emergency Medicine cannot refer you to other Mayo Clinic providers for nonemergency conditions. If you wish to be seen at Mayo Clinic for a nonemergency condition, request an appointment. For others, the provider can recommend outpatient diagnostic or physician evaluation options to address immediate health issues. The care provider can admit people who need immediate care. Care providers evaluate people who come to the emergency department and determine the severity of their current condition.
