Blood Sugar (Glucose) Testing

Testing your blood sugar (glucose) involves putting a drop of blood on a test strip and then placing the strip into a meter that displays your glucose level.

Blood Transfusion

The process of transferring blood or blood-based products from one person into the circulatory system of another. Blood transfusions can be life-saving in some situations, such as massive blood loss due to trauma, or can be used to replace blood lost during surgery.

Chest Pain Center

For individuals who experience chest pain and other warning signs of a heart attack, the chest pain center  is ready to provide immediate cardiac care. Patients are triaged quickly and then evaluated by a board-certified cardiologist. If the patient is experiencing a heart attack, the cardiologist may recommend immediate treatment in the cardiac cath lab. This rapid treatment response has proven to increase survival rates for heart attack patients.

Digital Rectal Examination

A digital rectal exam (DRE) is  a procedure in which the physician inserts a gloved finger into the rectum to examine the rectum and the prostate gland for signs of cancer.

Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG)

An electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) is one of the simplest and fastest procedures used to evaluate the heart. Electrodes (small, plastic patches) are placed at certain locations on the chest, arms and legs. When the electrodes are connected to an ECG machine by lead wires, the electrical activity of the heart is measured, interpreted and printed out for the physician's information and further interpretation.

Epilepsy/Seizure Treatment

Treatment of seizures and epilepsy. Epilepsy is a brain disorder that causes seizures, or attacks that may include uncontrollable jerking of the arms and legs, loss of consciousness and disorientation.  The exact causes of epilepsy are not known, but it can be related to things like head injuries, stroke and other diseases such as meningitis.

Fecal Occult Blood Test

A fecal occult blood test is  a test to check for hidden blood in stool.

Flu Shots

Flu shots are available to help protect you from the influenza virus.

Fractured Bone Repair

Fixing broken bones is often done with plates, nails, screws and pins. Many patients must wear external fixation frames or casts to get their bones back into proper alignment.

Head Injury Treatment

Because the brain is very complex, every head injury is different.  Some symptoms may appear right away, while others may not show up for days or weeks after the injury.  We use a variety of diagnostic tools to help identify the type of injury and determine the best course of treatment.

Heart Failure Treatment

Heart failure is a serious form of heart disease, but it can be monitored and treated in an attempt to improve heart function and reduce symptoms. The proper treatment for heart failure depends on what area of your heart is affected, and can include medicine and/or surgery.

Hydration

Provides necessary fluids to the body, usually through an IV tube.

Hypospadias Treatment

Treatment of hypospadias, a congenital  malformation in which the urethra opens at the base or beneath the penis.

Interventional Radiology and Vascular Studies

We participate in a variety of Interventional Radiology and Vascular Studies.

Laboratory Services

Lung Conditions Treatment

Treatment of conditions impacting the lungs.

Mobile MRI

An MRI contained within a large truck, which can be moved from location to location. An MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) is a type of scan that, instead of X-rays, uses a large, powerful magnet to create an image of part of the body.

Multi-Slice CT

Multislice CT scans, or MSCT scans, often allow remarkably accurate imaging of the coronary arteries, and often, blockages in the coronary arteries can be seen quite clearly. The quality of the image with MSCT scans is partially related to the number of "slices" taken by the camera. Currently, 16-slice and 64-slice CT imagers are commercially available.

Neck and Back Pain Treatment

Patients may suffer from neck and back pain as a result of injury or as a symptom of a problem such as osteoarthritis or disc herniation.

Negative Pressures Wound Therapy

Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is the use of sub-atmospheric pressure to promote or assist wound healing, or to remove fluids from a wound site.

Optic Nerve Decompression

Optic nerve compression occurs when there is increased pressure to the nerve of vision without a discernable cause. Women from their teens through 50s are more likely to have this condition. Surgery involves opening the sinuses through the nose and then carefully drilling the bone over the optic nerve. The lining of the nerve is then slit to allow the nerve to swell and relieve the pressure. Computer-guided surgery is sometimes used to aid in identifying structures in the sinus. This allows for accurate navigation in the nose.

Osteopathic Medicine

Osteopathic physicians use all conventional methods of diagnosis and treatment but are trained to place additional emphasis on the achievement of normal body mechanics as central to maintaining good health.

Osteoporosis Treatment Plans

Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mass and loss of bone tissue. Treatment of osteoporosis depends on the cause of your condition, the severity of bone loss, and the response to treatments. In general, treatments include calcium, vitamin D, weight-bearing exercise, prevention of falls, and bone-friendly medicines. 

Pain Management and Treatment

Pain management and treatment options address the whole person, not just the site of the pain. Options may include: occupational therapy, physical therapy, pain psychology, biofeedback, integrated mind-body pain program, medication management, social work, patient-controlled analgesia, epidural injections, procedural treatments, and/or implantable technologies.

Pelvic Ultrasound

A pelvic ultrasound is a noninvasive (the skin is not pierced) procedure used to assess organs and structures within the female pelvis. A pelvic ultrasound allows quick visualization of the female pelvic organs and structures including the uterus, cervix, vagina, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. Doppler ultrasound may also show blood flow in certain pelvic organs.

Pharmacological Pain Control

Pharmacological pain control involves the use of analgesics, as well as other medications, to modify the patient's mood or pain perception.

Pulmonary Conditions Treatment

Treatments for disorders of the lungs and airways. Conditions may include asthma, cystic fibrosis, pneumonia, bronchitis, emphysema or cancer.

Pulse Oximetry

Electrodes used to monitor your pulse are attached to a part of your body like a finger, earlobe, or skin fold.

Rapid Chest Response in Emergency Department

Knowing and recognizing the warning signs of a heart attack and getting to the Emergency Department immediately will improve your chances of survival and recovery. At the Chest Pain Emergency Department, patients are triaged quickly and then evaluated by a board-certified cardiologist. This rapid treatment response has proven to increase survival rates for heart attack patients.

Sexual Assault Services

Specialized services offered through the Emergency Department to provide quality, compassionate care to all survivors of violence. A Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) is a registered nurse who has received specialized training in the care and treatment of survivors of sexual assault. In addition to providing compassionate care to survivors, SANEs collect forensic evidence and may be called as an expert witness in court cases.

Sharp Debridement

The removal of dead or necrotic tissue or foreign material from and around a wound to expose healthy tissue using a sterile scalpel, scissors or both.

Sports Medicine Procedures

The field of medicine concerned with physical fitness and the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of injuries sustained in sports or exercise.

Stroke Treatment

Stroke is a serious brain attack in which blood flow to the brain is cut off.  Stroke patients can lose their ability to speak, understand and move properly -- in addition to the risk of dying -- if treatment is not given quickly.

StrokeSense

StrokeSense is a program developed by leading community hospitals and their affiliated physicians nationwide to help educate our community about strokes.

Thoracentesis

Thoracentesis is a procedure to remove fluid from the space between the lungs and the chest wall called the pleural space. It is done with a needle (and sometimes a plastic catheter) inserted through the chest wall. This pleural fluid may be sent to a lab to determine what may be causing the fluid to accumulate in the pleural space.

Transvaginal Ultrasound

Transvaginal ultrasound (also called ultrasonography) is an ultrasound test using a small instrument, called a transducer, that is placed in the vagina.

Treatment of Minor Emergencies

Treatment of minor health-related issues such as minor injuries or illnesses.

Treatment of Sexually Transmitted Diseases

Treatment of communicable infections transmitted by sexual intercourse or genital contact.

Ultrasound

An ultrasound, also called sonography, is a diagnostic imaging technique which uses high-frequency sound waves and a computer to create images of blood vessels, tissues and organs. Ultrasounds are used to view internal organs as they function, and to assess blood flow through various vessels.

Urgent Care Services

Urgent care offices provide immediate diagnoses and treatment options for a wide range of sudden illnesses and injuries. Since no appointment is necessary, you can expect efficient care on a walk-in basis when you need it. Urgent care facilities offer extended hours seven days a week.

Urinary Incontinence Treatment

Loss of bladder control is not a disease. Rather, it is a sign that a problem may exist. Regular leakage of urine can occur with certain movements, during pregnancy or times of stress. When leakage of urine becomes frequent or severe enough to become a social or hygienic problem, it is called urinary incontinence. Leakage of urine that cannot be controlled should prompt the patient to see a doctor. Proper diagnosis and treatment may correct the problem and ease the symptoms of urinary incontinence.

X-ray

An x-ray is a diagnostic test which uses invisible electromagnetic energy beams to produce images of internal tissues, bones and organs onto film.
