Our Emergency Department is very busy
Norfolk General Hospital's Emergency Department prioritizes patients with life-threatening or critical conditions. If your health concern is not urgent, you may experience longer wait times.
If your concern is not urgent, you may be able to skip the wait by choosing another care option. This helps keep emergency care available for people who need it most.
