Welcome to King Faisal Hospital Rwanda’s Emergency Medicine Services. Our team of emergency physicians and nurses is dedicated to providing high-quality, timely, and compassionate care to patients in their time of need. We understand that medical emergencies can be stressful and unpredictable, which is why we are committed to providing expert care in a calming and supportive environment.

Our Emergency Medicine Services offer a range of services to meet the diverse needs of our patients. We provide assessment, diagnosis, and treatment for a wide range of conditions, including:

• Trauma: Our emergency physicians are experienced in managing traumatic injuries, such as fractures, burns, and head injuries. We work closely with other specialists, such as surgeons and radiologists, to provide comprehensive patient care.
• Medical Emergencies: We provide expert care for patients with medical emergencies, such as heart attacks, strokes, and severe infections. Our emergency physicians are trained to assess and manage these conditions quickly to improve outcomes and save lives.
• Pediatrics: Our emergency physicians and nurses are trained to provide specialized care for children and adolescents with medical emergencies. We understand that medical emergencies can be particularly stressful for children and their families, and we are committed to providing compassionate and expert care in a child-friendly environment.
• Toxicology: We provide expert care for patients exposed to toxins, such as chemicals or drugs. Our emergency physicians work closely with toxicologists to manage these cases and provide the best possible outcomes for our patients.

Our emergency services collaborate with the national ambulance medical transport services (SAMU) for patient transfers from district hospitals or directly from the scene of injury or illness through either ground ambulance services or airlifting from anywhere in or out of the country.
