Frequently Asked Questions About Urgent Care for Pediatrics
Navigating healthcare options for your child can feel overwhelming. Here are answers to some common questions about pediatric urgent care to help you make informed decisions about your child's healthcare needs.
When Should I Take My Child to Urgent Care vs. the Emergency Room?
Urgent care is suitable for non-life-threatening conditions like minor injuries, fevers, or infections requiring prompt attention but not severe enough for the emergency room (ER). However, for serious emergencies such as difficulty breathing, severe injuries, or loss of consciousness, the ER is the best option.
