Emergency Services

GBMC Emergency Room (443-849-2226)

The Emergency Services department has three distinct patient care areas, carefully designed to minimize wait and maximize service for patients and their families.  Patients with minor injuries such as sprains are cared for in the Urgent Care area, where treatment time is typically under one hour.  Severe problems such as acute abdominal pain, chest pain, or injuries from motor vehicle accidents are evaluated and treated in Emergent Care.  A 23-hour Holding Service adjacent to Emergent Care offers observational care for adult patients who may not require a more expensive overnight hospital stay.  All areas offer privacy and the ease of bedside registation.
