EMS Team Center
In response to your concerns about the inability to contact someone via the HEAR radio when transporting patients into the ED, a dedicated phone line has been assigned to the on duty triage nurse.
This number - 908-203-6228 - should only be used when you have attempted to contact the ED by HEAR radio and there was no response; it should not be used as your primary contact method. Please make the number available to your crews.
The staff and administration of Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Somerset’s Emergency Department are taking your concerns and suggestions seriously and are working diligently on improving patient flow into and through the department. Please keep the communication lines open.
When bringing patients to the Emergency Department, please make sure you leave a driver with your vehicles at all times or park it, lock it and take the keys with you.
