Registered Nurse RN Emergency Department
6 days ago
Lancaster General Hospital, a Level I-accredited Trauma Center, is completing a major expansion and remodel of the ED this summer that will nearly double the size of the department, from 63 beds to 95 beds. This includes 10 beds in our updated and expanded behavioral health rooms, and 13 dedicated pediatric beds.

The team sees everything from sore throats, ear infections, lacerations and broken bones, to more serious conditions like stroke, heart attack, cardiac arrest, and traumatic injuries from motor vehicle and farming accidents, gunshot wounds and stabbings.
