FIND AN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT
Emergency Department
Eastern Health has Emergency Departments in over a dozen sites throughout the Eastern region of Newfoundland and Labrador. Emergency Departments are open to provide emergency care to people suffering from serious or urgent medical problems. If you are experiencing an emergency, please go the nearest emergency department, or call 911 for an ambulance. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please call 709-737-4668 or toll-free at 1-888-737-4668. If you are looking for health advice, or are unsure whether you, or a loved one, requires emergency medical attention, please call the NL Health Line at 811 to speak with a registered nurse 24 hours, seven days a week.
Heart attacks occur when the flow of the blood to the heart is blocked. Signs and symptoms of a heart attack may vary for men and women. If you, or someone around you is experiencing a heart attack, please call 911. Read about the signs of a heart attack and what do.
