Crestwood Medical Center ER - Harvest is the first freestanding emergency department in north Alabama and will bring emergency services closer to residents of one of the fastest growing communities in the state and will reduce patient wait-times at other emergency departments. The facility offers the same services as the emergency department at Crestwood Medical Center in Huntsville. We are committed to bringing more access to healthcare services that the residents need and deserve.
Similar to any hospital emergency department, the new Crestwood ER is equipped to treat patients with illnesses and injuries that require a higher level of care than urgent care facilities offer. The 11,047 square foot facility has 10 private patient rooms with radiology and lab services on site as well as a helicopter pad for patient transfer as appropriate. Many emergency services can be effectively managed at a freestanding emergency department without the need for transfer to a traditional hospital setting. Crestwood Medical Center provides equal employment opportunity to all employees and applicants for employment regardless of any individual’s race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, citizenship, military status, disability, genetic information or any other protected class status in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local laws.
