The Emergency Department at Holy Family Hospital is a highly responsive unit designed to provide immediate care for critically ill or injured patients. Open 24/7, it serves as the first point of contact for patients requiring urgent medical attention. Our team of qualified emergency physicians, nurses, and paramedics is specially trained to handle life-threatening situations, ensuring swift and accurate medical intervention.
