A child is sick or injured because parents want to do anything about it. Not knowing where to go for help. There are situations where your child needs to call the emergency room or 112. This includes life-threatening conditions such as severe head injury, difficulty breathing, poisoning, severe abdominal pain, open fractures, and bleeding. It burns heavily and unconsciously.
On the other hand, non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries should be treated in a pediatric emergency room. We are committed to ensuring that every child has access to medical and personal care and gets the care they need.
Emergency room.
The ER is staffed 24/7 with various medical personnel, such as nurses, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants trained to provide emergency care. These facilities have immediate access to specialty providers for neurology, cardiology, and more. UrgentWay Walk-in Medical Center also has medical staff such as nurses, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants trained to provide children with high-quality care.
