ARTESIA — Artesia General Hospital (AGH) appreciates the efforts of the community in supporting one another in response to the recent wildfires and flooding that have displaced numerous residents from Ruidoso and the surrounding region.

In an effort toward continuing to provide essential healthcare services to evacuees and the community, AGH would like to remind the public of its walk-in hours at hospital clinics and the availability of free transportation to and from these appointments. Transportation is available from Artesia, Carlsbad and Roswell.

“In these challenging times, we have a renewed commitment to help support the health and well-being of not just our community members but also our neighbors,” said AGH CEO Dr. Joe Salgado. “We are working to remove any barriers and provide timely medical care.”

Services available include pharmacy refills, behavioral health services, wound care and family and women’s services, among others.

Transportation to the hospital can be scheduled by calling 575-736-8211. Walk-in hours are from 7 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
