Urgent Care vs. ER Comparison👩‍⚕️

Not sure when to choose going to Urgent Care or going to the Emergency Room? Hopefully we can break it down for you!

Urgent Care- non-life-threatening; cold, flu, sore throat, ear aches, minor burns or cuts (may need sutures), sprains/strains, minor fractures, simple rashes, UTI's, physicals

ER- life-threatening; chest pains, signs of stroke (sudden numbness/weakness, difficulty speaking), severe bleeding, major head injuries, difficulty breathing, major broken bones (compound fracture), severe burns, seizures, poisoning

Hours of Operation:

Urgent Care- generally has extended hours but not open 24/7; usually shorter wait time, patients are seen in the order they arrive

ER- open 24/7; unpredictable wait times, patients are triaged (seen based on severity of condition)

Cost:

Urgent Care- typically less expensive than ER

ER- generally most expensive option

November is National Family Caregiver Month!👩‍⚕️⚕️🩺🥼
Here are 5 facts you might not have thought about unless you were in the shoes of a caregiver:

1. You probably don't know the whole story.

Unless you've lived it, you likely don't see the emotional, physical, financial and logistical challenges of caregiving happening behind closed doors.
You might see a family in public and feel tempted to judge how theyre handling a situation, but keep in mind that there are inevitably many factors at play that you don't understand.

2. We want to be invited even if We probably can't attend.

Caregivers may have to say no often due to the challenges and unpredictability of caregiver, but being included still matters. Invitations are a simple but powerful reminder that they're not forgotten.

3. We don't need advice.

Sometimes caregivers just need someone to listen without judgment or solutions. Offering advice can make caregivers feel misunderstood or dismissed, while empathy helps them feel supported and heard.

4. It means a lot when you engage with my child and get to know them.

Caregivers notice when others take the time to truly connect with their disabled child. Showing genuine interest, learning how to interact in ways that work for that person, and including them directly helps families feel accepted and valued.

5. We really need friendship

Genuine friendship is lifeline-level support for caregivers. Even when they can't Show up socially, your consistent presence matters deeply.
