If a patient has a medical issue that needs to be addressed immediately, they might think of contacting their primary care physician or going to the emergency room.However, their primary care doctor or the specialist they need is not always available.

What to Expect from Urgent Care Services?

Urgent care services are immediate medical treatments given to patients in an ambulatory care setting. These healthcare solutions are necessary for addressing pressing medical issues that are not life-threatening but require swift action because they have the potential to develop into a severe threat if treatment is delayed.

Medical conditions needing urgent care may include, but are not limited to:

• Cough and colds
• Sore throat
• Fever
• Minor allergies
• Skin rashes and infections
• Unexpected pain or inflammation
• Breathing difficulties such as mild to moderate asthma
• Vomiting, diarrhea, or dehydration
• Minor injuries (sprains and strains, puncture wounds and lacerations, minor burns, etc.)

Through urgent care services, patients receive prompt and personalized medical attention from urgent care specialists and health professionals.

These services often provide patients affordable payment options. Health insurance plans also are acceptable to help them lessen out-of-pocket expenditures.

If a patient needs follow-up care with their primary care physician or a specialist, an urgent care summary can inform the doctor of the treatments given.

Urgent Care vs. Emergency Care

It is important to know that urgent care and emergency care are two completely different medical services. Urgent care addressesnon-emergent health concerns, while emergency care attends to life-threatening conditions.

Severe medical issues can permanently impair or endanger an individual’s life and must be treated without delay.

Here are a few examples of conditions that need emergency health services:

• Convulsions, seizures, or loss of consciousness
• Electrical shock
• Severe allergic reactions
• Newborn health concerns
• Pregnancy-related problems
• Poisoning
• Severe pain in specific parts of the body
• Stroke or heart attack symptoms
• Major injuries (bone fracture, deep knife wounds, gunshot wounds, severe burns, etc.)
