West Boca Medical Center Introduces Innovative Fast
Track Emergency Department for Expedited Care
West Boca Medical Center announces the launch of
its Fast Track Emergency Department, revolutionizing
the delivery of care for patients with less severe medical
needs. This addition aligns with the hospital’s commitment
to enhancing patient experience, streamlining care, and
ensuring rapid access to high-quality medical services.
Traditionally, emergency departments have catered
to patients by providing care in horizontal settings, like
in beds and stretchers, often leading to extended wait
times and inefficiencies in treatment. Recognizing the
need for a more patient-centered approach, West Boca
Medical Center introduces the Fast Track Emergency
Department, where patients relax in comfortable recliners
for the duration of their visit, optimizing efficiency and
minimizing unnecessary delays.
“We understand that time is of the essence when it
comes to medical emergencies, and our new Fast Track
Emergency Department is designed to prioritize swift and
effective care for patients with less acute needs,” said Dr.
Cory Harow, Chief of the Emergency Department. “By
keeping patients vertical, we can provide a more focused
and streamlined approach, ensuring that they receive the
attention they need in a timely manner.”
The Fast Track Emergency Department features

individual TVs, and call bells for patient convenience. It appropriate level of care, with access to specialized Broward counties for over 37 years. WBMC offers general
