Acute Care
Available 24/7 | Short-Term Medical Care
What is Acute Care?
Acute care is focused on providing immediate, short-term treatment for sudden health issues, whether they stem from illness, injury, or surgery recovery. Unlike chronic care, which manages ongoing conditions, acute care addresses urgent needs that require prompt attention. Our team is equipped with advanced medical technology, pharmaceuticals, and a collaborative approach to give you the best possible care.
When Should You Seek Acute Care?
If you are experiencing symptoms or conditions that are sudden and severe but not necessarily life-threatening, acute care may be appropriate for you. This could include recovery from surgery, treatment for infections, or managing trauma from an accident. Our facility is staffed 24/7 to provide timely and effective treatment whenever you need it.
