Emergency Services
Our 24/7 emergency department provides rapid treatment for critical conditions including heart attacks, strokes, and traumatic injuries. ACLS-certified staff utilize teleneurology partnerships for immediate stroke assessment and Prairie Cardiovascular's Stat Heart program for acute cardiac care. With two helicopters available within 23 minutes, we ensure timely transfers for specialized treatment while maintaining on-site stabilization capabilities.
Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation
This medically supervised program helps patients recover from heart and lung conditions through monitored exercise and education. Using computerized telemetry, our staff tracks patient progress across 36 sessions focused on improving cardiovascular fitness, cholesterol levels, and blood pressure. The program includes family education components and offers maintenance options post-rehabilitation for sustained health benefits.

This is the second time i have walked out of Culbertson Memorial in my lifetime, both times due to long wait times. Today we sat in the waiting room for two n half hours. Last time was the same. They even turned a young gentleman away who needed stiches, telling him to come back in the morning he would have to wait a long time today. Its to the point that ill be driving to the next town over for medical assistance from now on.

Wow, would not recommend. Dr there was horrible. Wanted to run over 15 k worth of unnecessary tests, and didn't do a physical exam first. Gave 2 stars due to the nurses and tech being so nice and very helpful. Bet if they did an audit of this place there would be some insurance fraud and medical malpractice.

This place has almost killed me twice. First time sent me home in a middle of a asthmatic attacked, I was brought back to the er who admitted me (the same er doc) for COPd. Then after a few days another doctor told me I didn't have copd. Last night was the kicker, I don't even know how this is even a hospital. I had been dry heeding for over 24, I was shaking and so much sweat. I could t even walk. My asked them to come get me, this was at 7pm, they told her doctors shut them off from taking EMERGENCY ROOM visit. I'm deathly sick, still am. this hospital needs to shut down NOW!

This place is a joke! I am not convinced that this is a hospital! More like a nursing home. The staff are rude and only sit in the office in their cell phones all day doing nothing. I asked the young lady by the name of "Beth" if I can use the bathroom, and she replied, "what you got a nervous bladder or something " totally unprofessional. If something was to happen to me and I had to go to this place again, just let me die. This place is horrible and should be shut down

What part of DKA don't you understand. Receptionist was awful. We expressed the urgency over and over while he vomited and shook, ready to pass out in front of her. No urgency, no sympathy no nothing. She acted like we were bothering her! Had to tell the doctors what needed to be done. Just clueless all the way around.
