Adkins, M.D. Emergency/Trauma Center.
How To Get Here
The Robert T. Adkins, M.D. Emergency/Trauma Center is located on the first floor of the Layfield Tower, a magnificent 4 story patient care tower on the southwest side of the Medical Center's campus, adjacent to the Frank B. Hanna Outpatient Center.
How To Enter
The Robert T. Adkins, M.D. Emergency/Trauma Center at Peninsula Regional has been designed with separate entrances for patients arriving by ambulance and those arriving by car. All walk-in patients enter from the north side of the Layfield Tower, while all ambulances enter from the Vine Street side, or the south side of the Layfield Tower.
Having the two separate entrances allows for greater patient privacy and more efficient attention to every patient's specific needs.

Adkins, M.D. Emergency/Trauma Center. While patients may be dropped off at the walk-in entrance, there is no parking provided there. Parking in Garage B is FREE for not only Emergency/Trauma Center patients and visitors but for all visitors to the Medical Center.
