7-days-a-week facility offers 72 beds and the most highly-trained staff
of doctors and nurses in Pomona, all of whom offer immediate care, precise
diagnoses, and effective treatment. In addition, our Emergency Department
(ED) is the only
facility in the area approved to offer emergency pediatric care. We also
offer provider on arrival, this means that the first person your will

treatment.
Our medical emergency care utilizes the advanced technology and state-of-the-art procedures that our hospital has been known for since 1903.

As a result, Healthgrades® has ranked us among the top 5 percent of facilities offering emergency medicine.

Our team of doctors, nationally-certified nurses and ancillary staff provide stabilizing care, regardless of insurance coverage.

- Adult Medicine

Emergency Department Approved for Pediatrics (EDAP) Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center (PVHMC) is a designated Emergency Department Approved for Pediatrics (EDAP). What this means is that we have equipment specially designed for pediatric patients and all of our staff are trained to meet the needs of children of all ages. We have physicians and nurses who are trained and nationally certified in both pediatric emergency medicine and advanced life support. Because children are different from those of adults, children have a different spectrum of disease and their smaller bodies require specialized medical procedures and equipment that take in to account their size and stage of development. Pediatric advocates feel that children in need of medical care do better when taken care of by physicians and nurses who are trained to attend to both a child's physical and emotional needs.
