EXPERT CARE WHEN IT MATTERS MOST
Quick, responsive care is never more important than in a medical emergency when minutes, or even seconds, count. At Queen of the Valley Medical Center, our emergency care services can literally mean the difference between life and death.
LEVEL III REGIONAL TRAUMA CENTER
Queen of the Valley Medical Center is the only medical facility in the Napa Valley designated a Level III Trauma Center by the State of California. This distinction means we are equipped to handle everything from minor lacerations and smoke inhalation to the most serious multiple injured trauma victims.
Queen of the Valley is also equipped with a state-of-the-art cardiac catheterization lab, ready to treat heart attacks at a moment's notice. Physicians who are board certified in emergency medicine provide 24 hour coverage in the Emergency Department, while more than 100 medical and surgical specialists are on-call around the clock. The Queen also serves as the base station for Napa County emergency services connecting emergency ground vehicles, the California Highway Patrol and Med-Evac helicopters. A helicopter landing pad is located just outside Emergency Department doors.
NAPA VALLEY PAIN CENTER
When your heart’s in trouble, every second is precious, because restoring blood flow is the most important factor in preventing damage to the heart. Opening clogged arteries, fast, is what emergency cardiac medicine is all about. And at the Queen, a carefully orchestrated team pinpoints problems and delivers medications to limit damage to the heart.
