The St. Tammany Parish Hospital emergency department is a non-bedded unit, providing emergency care for all patients without discrimination. STPH is Covington's accredited chest pain center and is the only west St. Tammany Hospital in the ASSERT telestroke network.

With good teamwork, STPH ER strives to treat every patient according to each individual’s emergency need in a timely manner. All patients requesting examination and/or treatment will receive an appropriate medical screening exam by a physician to determine if an emergency medical condition exists.

In 2005, St. Tammany Parish Hospital adjusted its system in the Emergency Department and drastically reduced wait times. The ER consistently earns the department benchmarks below the national average. Whether your visit to the ER is for a minor incident or a major infarction, our skilled staff is ready to care for you.

Approach the ER directly from 11^th Ave.

If you are on the main entrance end of the building, go down the main hall off the lobby near the fountain. Go straight down the hall and take the last right to ER reception.
