Emergency Room

Located in the center of Nacogdoches, we employ a qualified medical team trained to excel in meeting the ER needs of our community.

Nacogdoches Memorial Hospital's Emergency Room is state-of-the-art and staffed with friendly professionals. Our 21-bed ER is the largest in Nacogdoches. Since 2008, we have maintained a Level III Trauma designation (currently IAP), making us the only Level III Trauma Center (currently IAP) in the region. In cases of major traumatic injury, experience and timely response are crucial.
Unlike freestanding emergency rooms, the IAP Level III Trauma Center at Nacogdoches Memorial Hospital is backed by the resources of an entire health system, including a 30,000-square-foot world-class surgery center right on site, should you need them.

• Retain a trauma surgeon on hospital staff 24 hours a day, seven days a week

• Have anesthesiologists and other specialists on-call and promptly available
• Have nursing care standards that are up-to-date for trauma
