From online care to the ER: Choose the care that's right for you
You know that health care needs often crop up on nights and weekends. Especially now, during COVID-19, it can be even more challenging to determine where you should go for care. Rest easy. Here’s more information on what kind of care is available and for what kinds of conditions.
- Wait until later in the week when you can get in to your doctor's office.
- Head to urgent care or a walk-in clinic, even though you feel miserable.
- Try an online visit or a virtual visit, since your cold—while irritating—is relatively uncomplicated.
- If you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, please isolate yourself at home and complete our free online screening. It's available 24/7 and takes about 15 minutes to complete. We will provide you with next steps based on your symptoms.
Here are some guidelines to help you sort through your options.
