Bethesda ER
Is Open

If you need to use the Bethesda Emergency Department after April 15, 2013, you can get there through the hospital's main entrance.

A fence will be put up to enclose the site for construction of a new addition for the expanded Genesis medical center. The fence will close off the Bethesda emergency department parking lot and entrance, but the emergency department will remain open.
