The Heart Hospital’s Emergency Department offers emergency care to patients who present with unexpected heart related problems which may be life threatening. Many patients are transferred to us from Hamad General’s Emergency Department and we also receive cardiac emergencies direct from the Ambulance Service.
The Emergency Department uses a triage system for screening and classifying patients to determine their medical need as per the department's prioritization system. We work collaboratively with other departments within the Heart Hospital to ensure that patients receive the emergency treatment they need followed by referral to appropriate departments.
