Urgent Care Facilities
Urgent Care centers fill the gap between primary care clinics, like Wassaja Memorial Health Center, and emergency rooms. They can address non-emergent acute medical needs. They often have shorter wait times and less out of pocket costs when compared to a hospital emergency department visit.
Common conditions treated at an Urgent Care include:
- Allergic reaction, asthma, bronchitis, congestion, cough, ear infection, ear aches, eye infections, fever, flu symptoms, insect bites, migraines, nausea, rashes, runny nose, sinus infection, sore throats, urinary tract infections, and wound infections.
- Conditions that should be treated at an Emergency Department include:
- Possible heart attack (chest pain or pressure), stroke symptoms (one sided numbness or weakness), open broken bones, severe bleeding, head injury, major trauma, loss of consciousness, severe abdominal pain, or anything life threatening.
