The emergency department delivers imperative care and plays a pivotal role in modern medicine. They do a great job delivering life saving skills when it matters most. An emergency department has so many responsibilities and most do a great job calling specialists to come along side their team to treat facial injuries. Sometimes, they will offer to suture or stitch a facial laceration. However, most emergency departments and urgent care centers do not carry the specialized sutures that have been designed for the face or have the specialized training to minimize scarring. Depending who is working that shift, it could be a physician, physician assistant, nurse, or resident delivering care. If you have any hesitation, we recommend that you politely always recommend a facial specialist to evaluate the injury.
