General Info
In an emergency, you can trust in the care at Lehigh Valley Hospital (LVH)–17th Street. Our ground level entrance is located on 17th Street in Allentown, near the corner of 17th and Chew Streets. As a full service ER, we assess, evaluate and treat major and minor medical issues. Emergency medicine for heart attack If you are experiencing heart attack symptoms, including chest pain, shortness of breath or pain in your arms, neck, jaw or back – call 911. Lehigh Valley Heart and Vascular Institute consistently ranks among the nation’s leaders in heart attack survival. Our MI Alert for Heart Attacks program saves lives and limits the amount of heart damage by educating area paramedics and emergency medical technicians (EMTs) to diagnose heart attacks in the field.

If needed, you can be transferred to another hospital in Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN) for a higher level of care. Emergency care for stroke Every second counts when it comes to stroke.
