North Memorial Urgency Center Opens April 29 in Blaine

by North Memorial

North Memorial Health Care and Multicare Associates are teaming up to provide a new way of delivering care: the North Memorial Urgency Center at Blaine Medical Center.

The Urgency Center, opening April 29, 2013, will be the first of its kind in Blaine and the surrounding area. It will deliver high-quality emergency care at a lower cost than a hospital emergency room. We have a team of North Memorial board-certified emergency physicians there to meet your urgent needs 7 days a week, 10:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m.

What is the difference between Urgent Care and Urgency Center?

North Memorial

Thank you for your question. There are some similarities between the two types of facilities; the difference boils down to these details:

The Urgency Center is for injuries or illnesses that are more urgent than what can be treated at an urgent care including chest or abdominal pain, high fever, dehydration, nausea and vomiting, broken bones, kidney stones and more.

It’s staffed by board-certified emergency physicians from North Memorial Medical Center, a Level I Trauma Center.

It gives patients easy access to the highest quality of emergency care, delivered in a more convenient, cost-effective outpatient environment.

Also, while it isn't related directly to care, hours are longer than what one might typically find at an Urgent Care facility. It will be open 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.
