Wake Up Tri-Counties OSF Healthcare Urgent Care, Prompt Care, and Virtual Care

OSF Prompt Care is available in Princeton at OSF Saint Clare Medical Center, directly across the street from the Saint Clare Emergency Room. Urgent Care is an important service for local hospitals. It serves as a needed way station between patients who are sick but aren’t sure if things are so bad that they need to go to the Emergency Room. Getting people to go to Urgent Care instead of the Emergency Room helps to make sure that the E.R is only treating emergencies rather than serving the needs of patients who could wait to see doctor. Samantha Rux from OSF Healthcare joined Wake Up Tri-Counties on Monday, July 31st, to talk about the benefits of OSF Urgent Care, Prompt Care, and OSF Online Virtual Care services.
