When sudden illness or injury strikes, many people head straight to A&E. However, urgent care is often a quicker and more convenient solution.
What Can Urgent Care Treat?
- Minor fractures and sprains
- Cuts, wounds, and minor burns
- Infections such as ear, chest, or urinary tract
- Stomach pain, vomiting, and dehydration
- Allergic reactions and rashes
Benefits of Urgent Care
- Shorter waiting times compared to busy A&E departments
- On-site diagnostics including blood tests and X-rays
- GPs and specialists available for rapid treatment decisions
When to Choose A&E Instead
Always go to A&E or call 999 for chest pain, stroke symptoms, severe bleeding, or difficulty breathing.
