FastER Track
Sometimes it’s difficult to know whether to seek treatment at an Emergency Room or an Urgent Care Center. That’s why Clark Memorial Health is offering our FastER Track program Monday – Friday from 10am-8pm in our Emergency Department.
If your condition is less serious, you may be seen sooner by one of our advanced practitioners. With four dedicated patient care spaces, your visit is a priority.
As part of our Emergency Department, if it turns out to be more serious, this means access to top professionals and a seamless transition should you require a greater level of care.
The following conditions may be triaged to FastER Track as appropriate:
- Falls and work-related injuries
- Cold, flu, cough, sore throat accompanied by a fever
- Diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting
- Skin rashes, insect, and animal bites
- Eye infections or injuries
