What to Expect from Your Emergency Room Visit

At Lompoc Emergency Services, we prioritize patients with severe medical problems. If your condition is not life-threatening, please be prepared to wait. Our exam rooms may be occupied or our doctors may be attending to a particularly serious case, even if the waiting room appears empty.

In the event of an emergency, we recommend bringing the following items if it is safe and feasible to do so:

• Insurance cards
• A state ID card, such as a driver’s license or passport
• A list of medications and supplements you are currently taking
• The name of your primary care physician
• Credit card

For parents, consider bringing activities or comforting objects for your children, such as stuffed animals. We understand that emergency room visits can be nerve-wracking for caregivers, so our team has created a cheat sheet to assist in your preparation.

Emergency Room vs. Urgent Care

For non-life-threatening situations, consider visiting our Lompoc Health – North H Center Urgent Care facility. Equipped to handle minor injuries, flu-like symptoms, and other less serious ailments, our Urgent Care center provides lab work, x-rays, and comprehensive same-day medical attention when your primary care physician is unavailable.
