When you require medical attention, how do you choose where to go? Specifically, how do you decide if your injury or ailment warrants a visit to Victoria ER or a trip to urgent care?

In most occurrences, it’s recommended that an individual goes to the emergency room when experiencing some sort of medical emergency. A medical emergency often refers to chest pains, difficulty breathing, uncontrolled bleeding, or a head injury. Yet, you can also choose to go to an emergency room for non-life-threatening medical issues, such as sprains, minor cuts, skin rashes, and fever.  

There are myriad benefits to choosing Victoria ER over an urgent care facility whenever you’re feeling unwell or showing signs of pain. Take a look!

 The Benefits of Choosing Victoria ER

There is no care like the immediate, personalized, and all-around amazing care you’ll receive at Victoria ER.

To start, Victoria ER is always open—and we mean always! You can drop by Victoria ER 24/7, 365 days a year, even on holidays and weekends. Better yet, at Victoria ER, the wait time is five minutes or less. That’s rarely—if ever—the case at an urgent care facility or other emergency rooms in the area.

Additionally, unlike urgent care facilities, Victoria ER offers an on-site clinical lab and state-of-the-art equipment, including the following: EKG, CT scan, X-ray, and ultrasound. As such, no matter the injury or ailment—major or minor—you’ll be treated as promptly and efficiently as possible.

Victoria ER also provides a range of services that may not always be available at an urgent care facility. These services are:

• COVID-19 Testing
• Clinical Services
• Pediatric Care
• Imaging and Laboratory
• Occupational Medicine
• Observation Care

Unfortunately, urgent care facilities don’t have the ability to treat patients overnight. Luckily, that’s not the situation at Victoria ER, where 23-hour observation care is available.

Finally, and most importantly, urgent care facilities don’t have trained, board-certified ER physicians on hand—but Victoria ER does!

In fact, Victoria ER is part of the Victoria community, it gives back to the economy by staffing from the community and building partnerships with local businesses and vendors. The staff also participates in and supports multiple events that benefit Victoria. In short, the entire team at Victoria ER is dedicated to providing our local community with access to fast, quality, and concierge-level emergency care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

However, it’s not just Victoria ER’s bedside manner or community presence that distinguishes it from urgent care facilities or other emergency departments, but its commitment to excellence in patient care and satisfaction, too.
