ER or After Hours Care: Do You Know Where to Go?
Making choices can be tough
when you or someone in your
family needs quick medical
attention. This is especially true
when your physician’s office has closed and
you don’t have much time to decide where to
go for help.
A program such as Jewish After Hours Care is the right place to go for medical problems that need immediate — but not emergency — attention. Examples of these types of medical situations include:
- minor sprains and cuts;
- sore throats;
- fevers; and
- ear infections.
- chest pain;
- trouble breathing;
- head or back injuries; and
- bleeding or vomiting that won’t stop.
Jewish After Hours Care is open Monday through Friday from
6 to 9 p.m. and Saturdays from noon to 9 p.m. For Jewish After
Hours Care locations, call 866-521-DOCS (3627).
