Urgent Care FAQ'S

What is an urgent care clinic?

Urgent care is a quicker and less expensive alternative to the ER. An urgent care center is used for patients with sudden medical conditions that require treatment usually within 24 hours. When experiencing a non-life threatening situation, a patient can receive treatment at Care One, rather than seeking treatment at an emergency room.
