Find an urgent care location near you
What about the emergency room?
If you believe your medical emergency is a condition that’s serious, or could cause death or permanent injury if not treated quickly, go to the emergency room. These conditions could include:
- Chest pain with dizziness, nausea, sweating, shortness of breath or pain radiating to the neck, jaw or arm.
- Loss of consciousness or vision.
- Poisoning or suspected drug overdose.
- Severe abdominal pain.
- Stroke symptoms.
- Traumatic injury to the head, neck or abdomen.
The chart below illustrates the types of injuries and illnesses that can be addressed at two different levels of care:
| Urgent Care | Emergency Room |
|---|---|
| Fever | Fever with stiff neck |
| Strain, sprains and breaks | Open fractures and dislocated joints |
| Cut | Laceration with persistent bleeding |
| Minor burn | Serious burn |
| Vomiting and diarrhea | Severe abdominal pain or intestinal bleeding |
| Allergies | Severe allergic reaction |
| Scrapes and bruises | Seizure |
