Every Minute Counts: Transforming Emergency Care
Every 20 minutes someone is in need of care in the Emergency Department. That could be you, a loved one, a neighbor, or a friend.

“For many, the ED is their first experience with Garnet Health Medical Center. We want that experience to reflect all the quality work that goes on in our community hospital.” - Robin Brennan-Seibel, RN

24 hours/day, 7 days/week, 365 days/year…
No matter the time, season, or holiday, the Emergency Department at Garnet Health Medical Center is committed to providing patients with the very best in emergency medical care. Whether it be an accident, life-threatening injury, or medical emergency, our Emergency Department stands as the first line of defense for saving lives and making a difference in almost every patient that comes through Garnet Health Medical Center’s bay doors. It is vital for Garnet Health Medical Center’s Emergency Department to always be prepared to serve the needs of our community. Through our Every Minute Counts campaign, you can help Garnet Health Medical Center transform emergency care for our region’s residential and commercial population. Our hospital, and our patients, need the support of our communities to continue to bring the very best in emergency medicine to the Hudson Valley region.

“In trauma care, the first 10 minutes - the platinum 10 minutes - are often the most critical. That is why as the trauma surgeon - all of the care - has to be delivered as soon as the patient arrives in the Emergency Department.”
