What to Expect at the Emergency Center

First you will meet with a member of the emergency triage team, when you arrive at the Emergency Center, unless you are critically ill or seriously injured.

Your condition will be assessed to determine how ill or injured you are, while in our triage area.

Physicians must treat the most serious and critical patients immediately. We make every effort to treat every patient in a timely manner and appreciate your patience.

Sexual Assault and Violent Crime Response Team

The Floyd Memorial Emergency Center also houses the Forensic Program and Sexual Assault and Violent Crime Response Team. It is a multi-disciplinary team of professionals within the hospital, community agencies and counseling services including

• A board-certified emergency medicine physician with training in both adult and pediatric evaluations
• Forensic nurse examiners
• A forensic technician

Our program offers 24-hour services with a nurse who can answer questions or direct your concerns to the appropriate professional. Anyone who has a concern that an adult or child has been sexually or physically abused, should call 812-948-7484.

In case of an emergency, call 9-1-1 for your local law enforcement agency or come to the Emergency Center at Floyd Memorial.
