The mission of the Emergency Department is to assess, diagnose and treat patients with urgent and non-urgent conditions, chronic or acute, of all ages in a timely manner.

Northern Maine Medical Center’s (NMMC) Emergency Department has demonstrated an ability to provide prompt assessment, resuscitation, and stabilization of ill and injured patients of all ages. The Emergency Department has 24-hour coverage by emergency medicine physicians and the prompt availability of other specialists as needed.

The Emergency Department is located on the first floor of the hospital. The department includes a private ambulance entrance separate from a walk-in entrance, a large trauma room, a dedicated decontamination area, advanced cardiac monitoring system with private exam rooms, and a helipad for medical airlifts. In addition to general exam rooms, specialty exam rooms are available for: ear, nose and throat; psychiatry; pediatrics and gynecology. 

Additionally, we have sexual assault forensic nurses on staff that are trained in both adults and pediatrics.

NO ONE seeking medical attention will be denied service for any reason, including insurance coverage or the inability to pay for services. 

The quality and appropriateness of patient care in the Emergency Department is continuously reviewed and evaluated through established quality improvement processes.

Under the leadership of Medical Director, Dr. Daniel Mirau, the Emergency Department is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with highly trained Registered Nurses, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners and Board Certified or Board eligible Physicians.
