Description

Offers an alternate level of care for those who do not have a life-threatening medical emergency, but require urgent treatment.

Urgent treatment centres are not the same as emergency departments. They do not receive ambulances, and only see patients by appointment.

Anyone experiencing a life-threatening illness or injury should call 911 or go directly to the nearest emergency department.

Some examples of urgent, non-life-threatening illnesses or injuries include:

  • Mild abdominal pain
  • Simple fractures
  • Limb strains
  • Mild muscle strains/sprains
  • Mild headaches
  • Earaches
  • Minor infections
  • Skin and eye irritations
  • Mild asthma
  • Small lacerations
  • Mild mental health support
  • Minor respiratory issues
