Emergency Care or Urgent Care?

Knowing when to seek emergency care versus urgent care can be crucial in ensuring you receive the appropriate treatment for your condition. Emergency care is needed for life-threatening situations, while urgent care handles non-life-threatening issues that still require quick attention. Here’s a guide to help you distinguish between the two:

When to seek emergency care

Visit our emergency room (ER) if you have any of the following conditions or symptoms:

  • Broken bones with visible deformities
  • Chest pain or difficulty breathing
  • Loss of consciousness or sudden confusion
  • Severe bleeding that won’t stop
  • Severe head or neck injury
  • Signs of a heart attack or stroke
  • Sudden weakness or paralysis
  • Seizures or convulsions

When to seek urgent care

Visit an urgent care clinic for treatment of the following conditions and symptoms:

  • Ear or eye infections
  • Mild to moderate fever
  • Mild to moderate sprains or strains
  • Nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea without dehydration
  • Non-severe allergic reactions
  • Sore throat, cough, or cold symptoms
  • Minor cuts or abrasions

In any medical situation, if you’re unsure of the severity, it’s better to err on the side of caution and seek emergency care.

What to Bring to Your Visit

To ensure a smooth and efficient visit, please bring:

  • A valid photo ID
  • Your insurance card
  • A list of any medications you are currently taking
  • Any relevant medical history

If you have questions about insurance or payment options, our friendly staff is happy to assist you.
