Emergency Medicine Physician

Hospital Details

The 635‑bed hospital is the largest in the region, staffed by 1,200 members of medical staff. It is a Level 1 Trauma Center, a Certified Chest Pain Center, and a Certified Stroke Center, and has earned Magnet recognition from the American Nurses Credentialing Center—an honor achieved by only six percent of U.S. hospitals. Additional designations include Comprehensive Stroke Care Center and Thrombectomy‑Capable Center.

The recently constructed Juve Family Behavioral Health Pavilion enables direct transport of behavioral health patients from the Emergency Department (ED). The ED handles approximately 65,000 visits annually and includes:

• 12 beds dedicated to behavioral health patients
• Direct back‑corridor access to the behavioral health pavilion
• Specialized emergency services for geriatric patients
• AHA‑Accredited Heart Attack Receiving Center with above‑national‑average STEMI system response rates
• Level I Trauma Center capabilities

The hospital also hosts an ACGME‑accredited three‑year Emergency Medicine residency program with eight residents per class, and an EPIC EMRMAT Physician‑in‑Triage program.

Located in Akron, the community offers quick access to Cleveland, Columbus, and Pittsburgh, as well as cultural attractions such as the Akron Art Museum, Akron Civic Theatre, Cuyahoga Valley National Park, the Akron Zoo, and the All‑American Soap Box Derby.
