Expert Emergency Care for Every Age and Stage
At El Paso Children’s Hospital Emergency Department, our team is specially trained to treat the full spectrum of pediatric emergencies from newborn concerns to young adult conditions. We are here 24/7 to deliver compassionate, specialized care when families need it most.
Just like an adult emergency room, a pediatric emergency department is designed to provide rapid, accurate, and often life-saving evaluation, stabilization, and treatment. At El Paso Children’s Hospital, we specialize in urgent medical conditions affecting infants, children, adolescents, and young adults up to 21 years of age. These include accidental injuries, infections, and complications from chronic illnesses that require immediate attention.
Our pediatric emergency physicians treat a wide range of conditions, from physical trauma such as falls and motor vehicle accidents to severe symptoms like high fever, abdominal pain, or breathing difficulties. We also care for patients with complex or chronic medical conditions, with the support ofpediatric subspecialists available around the clock.
What sets our emergency department apart from general ERs is our exclusive focus on pediatric care and our 24/7 access to board-certified pediatric specialists. This ensures that every child receives expert, developmentally appropriate care without delay.
Our staff is specially trained in both the medical and emotional needs of children and young adults. We understand that emergencies can be overwhelming for families, which is why we prioritize clear communication, compassionate support, and a calm, child-friendly environment. At El Paso Children’s Hospital, we are committed to delivering expert, family-centered emergency care—because every child deserves the best when it matters most.
