The Emergency Department is located at the back of the hospital off Quarry Road, with a parking lot just outside the entrance for Emergency Department patients, visitors and EMS personnel. After you have turned on to Pasteur Drive from Sand Hill Road, take a left on Welch Road , follow the street as it curves right, take a right on Quarry Road, and the ED entrance will be on the right-hand side (follow the signs).
This is a 23-bed department staffed by board certified Emergency Medicine physicians, residents, and nursing staff with specialized training in Emergency, Pediatric, and Trauma Nursing.
In addition, our Patient Admitting Representatives, Unit Secretaries, and Volunteers are ready to meet your needs. Emergency Department visits this year are expected to reach 40,000 patients.
Farewell to Falls, a program of the Trauma Center at Stanford, is working with older adults to help reduce falls.
