🚑 ER or Primary Care? Know Before You Go!

Did you know many health concerns can be treated by your Primary Care Provider instead of the Emergency Room?
Choosing your P*P first can save you time, money, and stress, and you’ll get care from someone who knows your health history.

👉 Common reasons to see your P*P instead of the ER:

🤧 Cold, flu, or allergies

👂 Earaches or sore throats

🔥 Minor cuts, burns, or rashes

💪 Back pain or joint pain

🚽 Stomach issues or urinary discomfort

💊 Prescription refills & routine care

🕒 Did you know?

Studies show that 20–40% of ER visits could actually be handled in a primary care or urgent care setting.
💵That’s a lot of people spending more time and money than necessary for issues like sore throats, minor infections, or medication refills.

🏥 When to use the ER:
If you experience chest pain, difficulty breathing, major injuries, uncontrolled bleeding, or anything life-threatening, go straight to the ER or call 911. 🚨

💳 We’re Medicare-friendly!
River Valley Primary Care Services proudly accepts Medicare and many insurance plans, and we also offer a Sliding Fee Discount Program for those who qualify, because everyone deserves affordable, compassionate care.

⏰ Call us or walk in during regular clinic hours, RVPCS is here for you and your family every step of the way.

🧠💡 What is Health Literacy and Why It Matters

Health literacy is your ability to find, understand, and use information to make decisions about your health.
Simply put, it’s knowing enough to take care of yourself and your family!

Why it matters:

People with strong health literacy are more likely to follow treatment plans correctly ✅

They understand medication instructions, screenings, and preventive care 🩺

They can spot reliable health information and avoid misinformation 🌐

Examples in everyday life:
1️⃣ Reading a prescription label correctly to take your medicine safely
2️⃣ Knowing which symptoms require a call to your provider versus a home remedy
3️⃣ Understanding nutrition labels to make healthier choices for your family

We’re here to help you understand your health and feel confident in your care. Don’t hesitate to ask questions, no question is too small! 💙

🌬️ Cold, Flu, and RSV Season Is Here! 🍂

Every fall and winter, we see a rise in coughs, fevers, and runny noses, and this year is expected to be a tough one. 🦠 Protect yourself and your loved ones with a few key steps:

💉 Get Vaccinated
Vaccines are your best defense against flu, COVID-19, and RSV. Even if you still catch the virus, vaccination greatly reduces the risk of serious illness or hospitalization.

🧼 Wash Hands & Clean Surfaces
Viruses spread easily through coughs, sneezes, and shared spaces. Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds and disinfect commonly touched surfaces often.

🏠 Stay Home When Sick
If you or a family member start feeling sick, get tested and take precautions to avoid spreading illness, especially around young children and older adults.
