North Shore Medical Center is accommodating the needs of the aging community with the opening of a Senior Emergency Room. The Senior ER at North Shore Medical Center offers focused care for senior patients, which is outfitted with technology and equipment to increase patient comfort and provide greater aid for those patients with visual and/or hearing impairments.

 

The new Senior ER rooms are newly renovated to provide a more comforting emergency room experience for senior patients. Some of the highlights include: new slip resistant wood flooring, softer lighting, landscape/artwork lighting, thicker mattresses, handrails and more. Additionally, North Shore Medical Center has fulltime patient liaisons who will oversee patient experiences.
