Pediatric Emergency Medicine

At the pediatric ER, we take a collaborative approach to handling emergencies involving young patients. The staff has the medical experience and resources to respond to any level of care, including:

• Asthma attacks and trouble breathing
• Belly pain
• Cough, cold, and flu symptoms
• Concern for broken bones
• Cuts and scrapes
• Dehydration
• Fever
• Head injuries
• Vomiting and Diarrhea

Our staff, along with SSM Health Cardinal Glennon pediatricians, will work closely with your child’s primary care physician for follow-up care upon leaving the hospital. In certain medical cases, it may be necessary to refer pediatric patients to SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital for further evaluation and testing.
