When to visit Urgent Care?

The Urgent Care at Grand Lake Health System performs a valuable healthcare service that’s positioned between the doctor’s visit and the hospital emergency room. Visit the Urgent Care for treatment of the following:

  • Abrasions, Cuts, Bumps or Bruises
  • Cough, Cold Symptoms or Fever
  • Minor Burns
  • Minor Eye Injuries
  • Nausea And Vomiting That’s Not Severe or Debilitating
  • Small Bone Fractures
  • Sore Throat or Ear Infection
  • Sprains And Muscle Strains, Including Back Pain
  • Urinary Tract Infection

Just as you shouldn’t make a doctor’s appointment for persistent chest pain or severe bleeding, neither should you visit an urgent care facility for these symptoms. Urgent Care is ideal for patients who need care for minor illnesses and injuries during hours when their doctor’s office is closed. It’s important to understand the difference. Here are examples of emergency symptoms – or when not to visit Urgent Care:

  • Bleeding that won’t stop after 10 minutes of direct pressure
  • Complicated fractures or broken bones
  • Coughing up or vomiting blood
  • Major injury such as head injury
  • Poisoning
  • Severe shortness of breath
  • Signs of heart attack that last 2 minutes or longer, including chest pain
  • Signs of stroke, like sudden onset of numbness in the arms or legs
  • Suicidal or homicidal feelings

Grand Lake Health System does not refuse care to anyone. The amount you pay for your Emergency Center visit will depend on your insurance plan and the treatment you receive. You may expect to see fees for emergency physicians, fees for hospital care, or fees for other services. Grand Lake Health System’s Urgent Cares require a copy of your current insurance card at the time of service. Insurance co-pays will be collected up front.
