Children’s minor emergency care
Some emergencies are more like mini-emergencies. If your child has a mini-emergency, schedule an ER appointment online for any of our five, convenient locations throughout the Austin area and wait at home. Remember, online scheduling is for mini-emergencies only. If your child is experiencing a major emergency, get to the ER ASAP or dial 9-1-1.
In addition to the main Dell Children’s Medical Center located in Central Austin, Dell Children’s has expanded emergency care services to other locations throughout Central Texas.
