Shams Clinic Emergency Department

The Emergency Department is a hospital-based facility staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, providing immediate, unscheduled outpatient care to patients with conditions requiring urgent medical attention.

The Emergency Department is where patients in critical condition receive immediate medical care. Today’s emergency units are led by highly trained doctors and nurses who specialize in delivering life-saving care and preventing serious complications.
