Steps to Emergency Medical Care

When an emergency happens, it’s likely to be unexpected. The best plan of action is to create a process for what to do in an emergency before it occurs. By ensuring you are prepared before a medical issue arises, you’ll have a clearer mind to think about your options and more time to construct your plan of action.

Use the following steps to create your emergency plan and tailor them to your specific needs:

1.       Contact emergency medical care. For injuries or conditions that don’t require an ambulance or hospitalization, call The Urgency Room. Save the phone number of the location nearest to you and let us know you’re on your way so we can prepare for you. We also accept walk-ins, so keep our location saved in your smartphone or GPS device.

2.       Contact friends or loved ones that need to be notified. This will ensure that you or your family members can make whatever arrangements necessarily for school, work, or other activities.

3.       Be prepared. It’s always a good idea to have a first aid kit on hand for minor injuries. This can help you in the event of an emergency; keep one at home and in your vehicle.

4.       Don’t neglect aftercare. With The Urgency Room’s aftercare videos, you can continue taking the proper steps for your medical concern after you leave our doors. Don’t forget that treating your injury is only the first step on your road to recovery.

Each person has their own requirements for an emergency plan, but if and when an emergency situation arises, those with a plan usually are much calmer and can be treated more quickly. Speak to your family and friends and complete your medical emergency plan today and remember The Urgency Room is open 365 days a year from 8am to 10pm.
