- Bringing important documentation, including your photo ID and insurance information

Emergency Room vs. Immediate Care Clinic
The hospital’s emergency room has more resources and specialists at its disposal to treat severe problems than in an immediate care center.
At DCMH Immediate Care Clinic, you may be seen by a nurse practitioner or physician assistant. Nurse practitioners and physician assistants who work in our immediate care clinic are experienced in an immediate care setting and, if needed, are able to consult with a board-certified physician working alongside them. Often, our qualified and emergency-trained team can see you when your regular primary medical provider cannot.
In instances like heart attack or stroke, every minute counts. If you are experiencing signs or systems of any of the life-threatening conditions below, call 911 or head to the nearest ER.
- Allergic reactions with swelling of the airways
- Chest pain (heart attack symptoms – chest pain, sweating, accompanying pain in your arm, neck or back)
- Coughing or vomiting blood
- Deep cuts or bleeding that will not stop
- Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
- Head or back injuries
- High fevers
- Loss of consciousness
- Major bone breaks
- Need for EKG, lab services and X-ray and imaging equipment such as ultrasound, CT or MRI scans
- Numbness in the face, arm, or leg
