Urgent Care facilities like St. Catherine’s are designed to handle non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries that require immediate attention. This might include:
Urgent care centers are equipped with the necessary tools to perform diagnostic tests, lab work, and x-rays. They are an excellent choice for when you can’t wait for a primary care appointment but don’t need the extensive resources of an emergency room.
The Emergency Room should be used for life-threatening conditions that require advanced treatment and rapid intervention. These include:
Emergency Rooms are staffed 24/7 with healthcare professionals who specialize in emergency medicine, and they have access to a broader range of resources than urgent care centers.
Urgent care visits typically cost less than an ER visit, especially for patients with insurance copays or those paying out-of-pocket.
Our urgent care services are available during extended hours and on weekends, providing a convenient option for non-emergency situations that nonetheless require quick attention.
Urgent care centers generally have shorter wait times compared to emergency rooms. At St. Catherine's, we strive to see patients as quickly as possible, addressing their health concerns efficiently.
Urgent care centers specialize in treating non-life-threatening conditions, which means the care is highly focused and efficient.
