Emergency Department or Urgent Care - How to Make the Right Choice
It’s Saturday afternoon and you sprain your ankle playing ball with the kids. Or maybe your child has a rash that’s spreading. Do you visit urgent care or the hospital emergency department? Urgent Care and Emergency Department both imply there is a medical situation that needs to be addressed quickly, which can be confusing about where and when to go.
Making the right choice on where to receive care can save your life, save time and is cost effective.
REASONS TO GO TO THE EMERGENCY DEPT.
Signs of a heart attack, including chest pain
Signs of a stroke, onset of numbness in the arms or legs, slurred speech or facial drooping
Severe shortness of breath
Poisoning
Major life or limb threatening injuries
Coughing up or vomiting blood
Suicidal or homicidal feelings
Emergency departments specialize in managing catastrophic illnesses and trauma injuries.
REASONS TO GO TO URGENT CARE
Fever without rash
Ear pain
Painful urination/UTI
Persistent diarrhea
Sore throat
Vomiting
Minor injury such as a common sprain or shallow cut
Minor burns
Broken bones
Stomach pain
An urgent care is a convenient option if your regular physician is unavailable or unable to offer a timely appointment. Or, when illness strikes outside of regular office hours.
When to call 9.1.1.
If symptoms arise suddenly and you believe that a life is in jeopardy, call 9.1.1. Calling 9.1.1. allows emergency medical services to begin lifesaving treatment upon arrival and to continue while en route to the hospital.
