Hoag Hospital offers a comprehensive mix of health care services to treat virtually any routine or complex medical condition. Through its more than 1,000-member medical staff, state-of-the-art equipment and modern facilities, Hoag provides a full spectrum of health care services. Emergency room care also plays a key role, as 40 percent of the hospital's inpatients come through the emergency care unit (ECU). In addition to the increased space and equipment added during a 1995 renovation, Hoag's emergency efforts are supported by life-flight helicopter services and a paramedic radio base station. In 2005, there were 58,000 ECU patients, meaning the ECU staff treats an average of nearly 160 patients each day in its 30-bed unit.
