Emergency and urgent pediatric care at Children’s Minnesota St. Paul

The St. Paul emergency department is pediatric-focused. Still, the closest ER or 911 is the correct choice when a child is unstable.

ER name
Children’s Minnesota Hospital — St. Paul: Peter J. King Pediatric Emergency Department.
ER address
345 North Smith Avenue, St. Paul, MN 55102.
ER phone
ER hours
Open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
ER features
Children’s Minnesota lists pediatric emergency medicine physicians on-site 24/7, pediatric orthopedic surgeon coverage 24/7, pediatric sedation/anesthesiology available in the ER, and access to pediatric specialists.

Call 911 now

Call 911 for severe breathing trouble, blue lips, unresponsiveness, seizure with emergency features, major trauma, severe allergic reaction, severe bleeding, suspected poisoning, or sudden severe symptoms.

Use the St. Paul ER

Use the pediatric ER for urgent child injuries or illness when emergency evaluation is appropriate and St. Paul is the right location for your family.

Expect triage

Children’s Minnesota says ER patients are assessed as they arrive and seen based on urgency, so a child arriving later may be seen first if their condition is more urgent.

Bring key details

Bring medication list, allergies, recent discharge paperwork, specialist names, immunizations, insurance card, and any urgent-care or clinic notes when safe to do so.

Wait-time warning: Estimated wait times can change quickly. Do not use an online wait-time estimate to decide against urgent care when a child has serious symptoms.

Appointments, referrals, pre-registration, and preparing for a St. Paul visit

Non-emergency pediatric care works best when records, referrals, insurance, and directions are ready before arrival.

Decide whether this is emergency or scheduled care. Use 911 or ER care for danger signs. Use appointment request, primary care, or specialty clinics for non-emergency needs.
Search provider or location first. Use Children’s Minnesota provider and location tools to find the right pediatric specialty, doctor, clinic, or St. Paul building.
Ask whether a referral is required. Many specialty visits may require a pediatrician referral, outside records, lab results, imaging, or insurance authorization.
Pre-register when instructed. Children’s Minnesota says some appointments require pre-registration, and the process helps speed up registration on the day of the appointment.
Arrive early. Children’s Minnesota recommends arriving about 15 minutes before scheduled appointments so families have time to park, find the clinic, and complete registration.
Confirm the exact St. Paul building. Your visit may be at the hospital, Garden View Medical Building, primary care clinic, surgery center, emergency department, or a nearby partner location.
Bring the right documents. Bring photo ID, insurance card, medication list, allergies, referral, imaging, lab results, immunization record, and any instructions from the care team.
Appointment script: “My child has an appointment at Children’s Minnesota St. Paul for ____. Which building and floor should we use, do we need pre-registration, and should we bring records, imaging, referral, or insurance authorization?”
