Shaare Zedek's new Emergency Department is a state-of-the-art facility where all adult patients are cared for regardless of their medical condition. Patients are triaged by a senior nurse and treated by specialists in emergency medicine, internists, surgeons, orthopedists, etc. Consultations are obtained from the wide variety of specialists throughout the hospital as neccesary. The department includes the Kennedy Leigh Trauma & Resuscitation Center.

Two visitors are allowed with each patient at all times.

In addition to the Emergency Department, the hospital maintains a 14-bed observation and short stay unit, including a 5 bed chest pain unit. Patients who require shorter periods of treatment, or require a limited scope of testing can be admitted to this unit.
