What conditions can be treated at urgent care?

Urgent care clinics are a great option when you need medical help for non-emergency issues, such as:

• Cold and flu symptoms, including fever and chills, cough, headache and sore throat
• Sinus infections and strep throat
• Sprains and minor bone fractures
• Ear and eye infections
• Small cuts, minor burns or skin rashes

When should you go to the ER?

Emergency rooms are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week for life-threatening emergencies, traumas and major medical conditions.

Symptoms such as chest pain, difficulty breathing, uncontrollable bleeding, loss of consciousness, sudden changes in vision and coughing or vomiting blood – to name a few important ones – are signs you need to get to an ER.

Don’t take any chances – in case of an emergency, call 911 immediately.
