Health Hotline

Do you need to go to the emergency room?  Should you go to an urgent care center, or can you wait to see your doctor? Health Hotline is the place to turn when you have a medical question. 

Health Hotline is staffed seven days a week from 6 a.m. through Midnight (12 a.m.) by registered nurses licensed in Nevada and California. Nurses have special training for answering questions and follow medical guidelines approved by physicians. They will help you determine the appropriate level of care for your condition. 

Health Hotline cannot answer medical questions for callers outside of Nevada and California because of state nursing licensure regulations.

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, dial 911.

Call Health Hotline when:

• You are not sure if you need medical care from your doctor
• You are not sure if you should go to the emergency room
• You have questions about how to care for a minor injury or illness at home

You can also listen to recorded health information on dozens of topics with the Health Information Library. 

Call 775-982-5757 or 888-324-3243.
