As the flu and the holiday seasons arrive, if you find yourself needing care for anything from upper respiratory illnesses to minor or major injuries, you can turn to Memorial Healthcare System's two new freestanding emergency rooms—Red Road ER in Miramar and Douglas Road ER in Pembroke Pines—or any Memorial Urgent Care Center for the right care at the right time.

Beyond addressing immediate sickness and injuries, for individuals who don't have a dedicated primary care provider for ongoing care, we also offer a true medical home through our extensive network of Memorial Primary Care facilities.

Why Visit Memorial's Freestanding Emergency Rooms?

Memorial Healthcare System's freestanding ER's in Pembroke Pines and Miramar offer around-the-clock outpatient emergency care for children and adults, even on weekends and holidays. Patients can walk in or schedule an appointment in advance. Our experienced emergency medicine team strives to deliver care within two hours for:

  • Seasonal illnesses: Flu, COVID, severe colds, and upper respiratory infections.
  • Minor injuries: Sprains, fractures, dislocations, cuts requiring stitches, stomach pain, and other acute symptoms.
  • On-site diagnostic services: X-rays and CT scans for fast evaluation.
  • Dehydration and severe symptoms: IV fluids and medications for dehydration and other urgent needs. 

No appointment is required, and walk-ins are welcome.

As a testament to our commitment to outstanding patient-centered care, for the last seven years in a row, our freestanding 24/7 Care Center in Pembroke Pines earned Press Ganey’s Guardian of Excellence Award.

Construction Note: You may see construction when you arrive, but we remain fully open as we build a new free-standing emergency department to better serve our community.
